over the past two weekends I've done some extensive testing. I am able to play for hours and hours solo without so much as a stutter with fps in the 70-100 range constantly.
the issue is a complete system crash when grouping only in group instances in SLI mode. it does not seem to be an application crash as alt+tab or other means of exiting or switching applications does not work, my second screen also freezes, it seems to be a crash of windows explorer and the system does not recover. must cut power to system to restore. it does not happen automatically, it takes about a half hour to an hour to crash while running the instance.
when I set the nvidia profile to use only a single card, the issue does not exist, it only happens in SLI.
i know my cpu is overclocked significantly, but this happens even when set to stock speeds.
both cards run at about 60% utilization gpu and about 2gb ram on each card used. (cards have 4gb each). there is plenty of headroom.
hardware is in attached dxdiag txt file. user settings also attached.
is anyone else using SLI having similar problems?
