    So I am trying Sweetfx/reshade on mass effect 2, for some reason, sli is no where near working properly, even with nvidia inspector.

    If I take out Sweetfx/Reshade, Sli works perfectly and I never really use Sweetfx/Reshade, just want to try out, it does work but my god, does sli performance goes down, gpu usage is nowhere near 60+%.

    Question, Does Sweeffx/reshade hinders sli performance, is it meant to be ran on one gpu??? Cause the moment I took out Sweetfx, it ran like it did before, over 60 fps @ 5k with 1x2ss, now its like running like 20fps and under????

    I tried doing different method like enchance the app settings within inspector,etc, nope, they dont work.

    Even changed the sli profile to afr2, I usually set it to auto select, default rendering mode, still runs prettie bad.

    Is there any work around while running sli with sweetfx/reshade?

    @ 5k resolution? That's more like gpu doing the work, more towards gpu bound then cpu.

    And just to let everyone know, I even disabled smaa/fxaa within the sweetfx settings, still no go.

    But it does run 60fps @ 5k @ all times basically without sweetFX.

    I have alot better scaling without it for some reason.

    I even disabled the 1x22 ss within nvidia inspector, still, the fps is like 20 and below.


    Here is a playlist I made @ 5k on youtube:

    Don't do full screen as it will drastically lessen the smoothness while viewing.

    Fraps fps meter is on the top left so people can see the performance in real time.
