91.31 SLI 3D stereo - A pure dissapointment! Single-GPU usage only or CRASH/BUG!
I know that the 3D stereo community is quite small!..
How about SLI 3D stereo community? [i]IS[/i] it even a community, or is it just me??
I've now waited more than a year for my investment to work as it should.
But still the only thing that has happened is that my wallet has become thinner!!
The graphics acceleration is still only half of what I've invested in!
3D stereo still doesn't work with SLI!
When I first saw the "new" drop down "SLI stereo rendering mode" in the beta driver,
I was quite excited. However, I never got it to work,
so I had to go back to the 78.01 due to performance issues.
I figured that this would be fixed in the final release...
Now finally the 91.31 is here..
But still the same bugs!!
When switchin to "Split-frame" mode, the bottom part of the screen (one of the GPU's) appears totally flat!
(I remember seeing the same bug in an early SLI enabled 3D stereo driver)
And when switching to "Dedicated GPU" - I get a bluescreen !
(It happens immediately when the games enters directX mode)
I sure wish that I had gone for a single 7800 instead of paying about the same amount of € on 2x 6800GT's!!
Now all I have is 1+1 cards performing as 0+1!
I sure didn't pay for using a setup at 50% of the potential performance!!!
Not likely to see Nvidia do anything about this in quite some time though I guess..(?)
It sure would be interesting to see if there is [b]ANYONE[/b] out there with the same frustrating situation!! /devil.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':devil:' />

Yes, me, same board (but i got the 2 7800gt's :P )
Just kidding, but please try mohpa it seem to work in splitframe mode. But no chance for me to find out whether both gpu's really running(load balancing shows nothing, temperatures not really different).
...all other games i'tried crashed or at least no 3d, so yes its annoying.
As a kompromise i reduce resolution and turn on SLI- AntiAliasing, better than nothing
