l mandrake 9 Posted June 2, 2009 Does SLI work with Arma2? Does Physx? I have a second 8800gt but dont want to install it if it will do no good... :confused: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soldier9945 12 Posted June 2, 2009 (edited) We tested it with a 4870X2 but you may try the -winxp switch as explained in this thread. Please tell us here if it worked. I don't have an nVidia card right now, can't test. Edited June 2, 2009 by soldier9945 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadowclaw 10 Posted June 2, 2009 SLI sure makes a diffrence and seems to work very well. I switched it off and just tested ARMA 2 with 1 card. It's sure a great diffrence. I have 3 cards in SLI mode running and it sure rocks on max settings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've got around 20FPS in the center of that village... doesn't change if I set the settings on lowest... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadowclaw 10 Posted June 2, 2009 Can't tell you atm. because i haven't played singleplayer up to this point yet. I play "Supermächte" in MP the most. I love the building and conquer MP Map :) But if you like to know i'll play up to this point in the game and see what i get. Is there some kind of command where you can see how much FPS you have? Mine should be high after what i see but i couldn't tell how much exactly they are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
l mandrake 9 Posted June 3, 2009 Well no luck so far with my two 8800Gt cards, with SLI enabled I see a big fat zero performance change, even using this '-winxp' switch. I also tried renaming the arma2.exe to farcry.exe and got a huge decrease in performance (slideshow). Any ideas how to get SLI working? PS I have the latest drivers (XP) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
