Actually before the 7970's I had SLi GTX 670s. They worked just fine in SLi with SWToR in windowed mode.

Seems AMD is still a step behind in the dual card stakes, these Sapphire 7970s are damn fast cards though.

Crossfire only working in fullscreen - any workaround?

Hey All,

got a new graphic card setup - 2 x Sapphire Dual-X Boost 7970s.
Nice cards so far.

Crossfire is working in games when they are Fullscreen but not in Windowed mode. Is there any workaround for that?

Basically I like to play two characters at once in SWToR so the game must be in Windowed ...

Re: Detailed Report: Borderlands 2

B2 is only showing on the middle screen. This happened after I hadn't played for a couple of weeks, there may have been a patch released in that time.

I play in 3 x portrait mode (3600x1200).
When the game first came out this worked fine and I played across 3 monitors.

Now when I start up the ...

Okay, all fixed.
If I start in Fullscreen the UI is confined to the left most monitor and can't be moved.

If I then change the setting to Fullscreen(Window) or to Windowed mode the UI spreads out to cover all three monitors. I can then go back to Fullscreen and the UI stays centred.

My advice is to try the new beta driver from nvidia maybe that one will work. Just uninstall your currunt one and install this one.

If it is VRAM limiting the FPS you could try disabling desktop Aero to give yourself a couple of hundred more MB of VRAM.

I am interested to hear if that work as I am currently sitting on the fence on whether to get Sli 670 2GB or wait for the 4GB versions.
