They broke SLI support, your new card is currently useless : :thumbdown:

I don't know if it helps, but I found this on the BL forums:
Concerning the textures flickering with SLI enabled issue, i found out in the Nvidia Driver that if you change the SLI mode from default to "Alternate frame rendering 2" in the game profile, the flickering is totally eliminated, without sacrifying any performance.

I can confirm that this works on operation locker (where snow was flickering as hell since the patch), and for test range. I will do further testing but im confident.

I have 2x GTX670 with 331.93 drivers installed, using ultra settings with 4x aliasing and 125% pixel resolution.
for me BF4 is not fun, so I stop Playing for now.

i hear you.

for me the "netcode" issue/s turned infantry into a game of luck. its utterly frustrating.
never been a great jet pilot. choppers are self explanatory.
the only playable option that has some skill and tactics left to it is armor, although its literally a rocket magnet, actively pulling nearby zooming rockets so they won't miss by mistake.

SUAV is still broken since if you stand on an ammo pack you get a new one immediately when the one you are using crashes.
I heard somone "high up in the ranks" saying that it probably will get banned in GC because of that "bug", during yesterdays Black Ops.

They should really hire dudes from Activision to do the netcode for them.

May as well drop XFire tbh. Since MTV took over the company has went to crap. It's seen a drastic user dropoff.
