I have 32GB of RAM on my 64-bit system, but the game (running 64-bit version) is only using 3.5GB of RAM, anyone having the same issue?

That's good to hear! :benetton:

Yeah it's hard sometimes to notice what people are talking about referring to what ram usage they have,but most of the times when seeing high ram usage mentioned they talk about system usage,not just the game.

And you're welcome.😀


I tried disabling the crossfire and running it on a single GPU. It uses 99% of the GPU (As apposed to ~70% in crossfire) and crashes during the round or sometimes before even the round starts!

I even tried it on both DX11 and DX12. I can tell it's a little more stable than crossfire but the FPS dropdowns are still there but not as bad.

To be honest if it didn't crash I would of used single GPU! but now I'm running into another problem.
 
Strange that it crashes with just one gpu. Tried each one on it's own in the system? So truly take one at a time out.

Other thing you might try is instead of the latest crimson drivers use older drivers. I think for my HD 7870 (Tahiti LE),when still using them, i stopped updating at about Catalyst version 15.4/15,7.

At least when wanting to try look at the Catalyst versions first.
 


I tried using a the other GPU, still the same problem 🙁
I will mess around with the drivers and report back!
 


Yes, the latest driver released by AMD last night (April 11th) helped :bounce:
They fixed the crossfire functionality of the game by adding a new profile! 😀

Here're their releases notes, look under "Fixed Issues"

The temperatures of both cards are around 45C running 100% load
The temperature of the CPU is around 75C running 100% load

Thank you so much for keeping up with this issue, it's finally working in a stable manner! And thank you for confirming that the RAM usage is similar to mine!
