Hey guys. Got my 980ti SLI setup installed yesterday, wanted to try them out so I booted up Far Cry 3 (just because) and then I noticed my FPS would decrease by about 5-10 for half a second and go back to normal.
This happens every once in a while but seems pretty consistent. I don't think it's temperature because my top card only gets to 55c and the bottom goes to 47c while in game. Furmark got the top one to 85c, though.
I should clarify that this has happened with my last set of cards as well, my Titan Blacks. It's just now bothering me, though, because I feel that two 980ti's shouldn't have ANY drops while playing Far Cry 3. Also, FPS drops in certain areas too. I've gotten up to 200 FPS maxed, but I'm just worried something is wrong.
Also, I was playing a bit after toying with some settings, and I also used MSI Afterburner to record some stuff, and I took a picture (with my phone since Steam was being a dick and not letting me screenshot).

How does my CPU usage look? My GPU usage is pretty weak too. BTW I capped my FPS to 100 just for reference - my FPS should not be in the 70's to 80's. It even dips to 60's at times!
Another question - Post FX is apparently a pretty demanding setting yet turning it all the way down provides ZERO increase in FPS. Same can be said for turning off AA; there is no FPS increase turning it off. Any idea why?
