Radeon 7970 Crossfire => BF4 no IMPROVEMENT

[Jeffy14]

Hello everyone,

Here is my setup:
Windows 7 64bits
Asus p8p67 evo rev3
Radeon 7970 Club 3d @ 925hz
Another 7970 Club3d which is basically the same except for the fan I believe.
Intel i5 2500k
All my drivers are up to date ofc... bios, GPU etc...

I installed both GPU by following the instructions over there.
There is no improvement at all! The second card is recognize by windows because I see it in the device manager and I am able to activate the Crossfire option in the Catalyst settings.
I tried to switch the cards on the MOBO but it did not change anything. I also changed the place of the Bridge but nothing.
I compared the FPS on Battlefield 4 - Siege of Shanghai (V-sync is off ofc). At this point I dont know what to do. I really need help.

Has anyone an idea please?

Thanks a lot

Battlefield 4 is known to scale horribly when it comes to Crossfire and SLI. Try it on another game that does scale well, and i am willing to bet you that you will see improvement.

Thanks for your answer! Well I read the opposite lol. That BF4 did a pretty good job at it lol

But let's say you are right. Should I try using something like 3D Benchmark?
Do you recommend anything?

THanks a lot!

That's just what I heard. I could be wrong. As Hannah Montana puts it, "Nobodies perfect! You live and you learn it!" or something like that.

About the benchmark, something like that would do, or something like Heaven would also do the trick for free.
