    Hey y'all,

    How do I go about forcing a profile? I can't even find the profiles in CCC or the optimizer.

    Thanks. I've not yet had to deal with Xfire.

    when you set up a profile for a game, there is an option to select the xfire compatability mode.

    Most work best with AFR

    Here's a Pic for ya on how to add what ya want.
    Open CCC
    Gaming
    3D Application Settings
    ADD for any profile
    There's a search box for adding DX/openGL profiles.Try a few different profiles for your games.

    This was on older driver
    EG:Added OGLEnabledSuperAA to Wolfenstein Profile

    Why the switch from 980 SLi to 295X2?

    2x290X or 295X beats the 980 SLI in high res gaming.

    This. In addition, I originally purchased 970's. I sold my 980's and went back to the 970's and noticed a lot of stutter issues and we all know why now. After playing shadow of mordor with my day old 295x2 I noticed it does in fact use 3.7-3.8gb of Vram which is exactly why my 970's were having issues at my quality settings. Plus I won't support a company with poor business practices.

    And in my honest opinion, eyefinity is much better then nvidia surround as well.

    Ive tested both. Eyefinity works much better with mixed monitors.

    This is why I am getting a second R9 290 soon. One R9 290 copes with new games above high/ultra settings @ 4244x1024.

    This is true as well. I had an Eyefinity setup with my last AMD card, the 7950 and it was great. I am looking to invest in 2 more 1440p monitors for my current setup.

    In Catalyst Control Center you need to add the game.exe file to CCC, select it then scroll down to use either a custom Crossfire profile of AFR Friendly or 1x1 Optimize. You can even use an existing AMD profile, if you prefer.

    Hope that helps. :)

    I'd recommend leaving frame pacing on and performance optimisations to standard while gaming.
