    Dead Rising 3 is out and is optimised poorly. I'd like to eek some more performance out of my cards to try and help get over the 30fps mark @ 4k.

    I downloaded MSI Afterburner, but frankly don't know what's a safe voltage overclock value to raise to etc.

    Any help on this would be appreciated.

    Also, it only shows one panel is it automatically applying any changes to both cards? (I have 2x R9 295x2's in the system...)

    Thanks in advance!!

    Disable DoF or other broken stuff.
    Try to google some optimization guide for this poorly done game.
    Considering how repetitive and badly scripted DR1 & 2 were, you should not be worried much as you'll give up on it soon anyway.

    The 295x2 is a poor overclocker due to only having two 8 pin PCI-E power connectors

    Mine has a full waterblock on it, and i can't get it over 1120 on the core

    It's not due to temps either, doesn't go above 53-55 degrees

    Simply doesn't get enough power to go higher

    Also, quadfire scaling goes from good to downright awful, but you have already been told this

    Fair enough, thanks lads. I can't believe in the era we live in where PC gaming is resurgent we're getting awful ports like Dead Rising 3
