Yep... And remove him from FB :P Thanks for the suggestions :)
Yep, uninstalled using DDU, tried different slots, PSU plugs etc :( Tragic, as it's a truly great card!
He swears it "worked", but he might have only checked 2D mode...I suppose he might have sent me a bad card. Is this how cards normally die?...
Alas, they're currently out of town :( That would be my first guess. They worked fine a few weeks ago... Is it likely that it's a PSU issue?
MSI Gaming 3g 780 ti, and a 950W Corsair PSU (not sure exact model)
I bought a card (MSI 780 ti) from a friend, and it may have been damaged in shipping. When I install the nvidia drivers, initially the card seems...
+1, game is awesome :D
All we can really say is that it IS awful and unplayable on many people's machines, and it ISN'T on others. Personally, I think that still counts...
I think that's just a typo.
Go to tactical view and press R3 to switch between enemies. this shows their level and status effects. Or press R3 in normal view to lock on to...
Yeah, I've tried everything I could think of to get mantle to work nicely, but no luck. VRAM usage just increases constantly as I play the game,...
I've got the same cards as you (give or take a few MHz). Crossfire scaling is around 95% for me in most situations, to the point where I run into...
Yep, putting the textures on high removes the problem. However, mantle still takes an extra 600mb of vram, which is probably where the problem...
When there aren't cpu spikes and texture streaming issues, mantle is really smooth, and it has a nice fps boost in areas where there are lots of...
It might start there, but it will keep climbing up.
Yep, it's very disappointing. Although the issue may be on Bioware's side. pcgameshardware.de talks of a patch that supposedly fixes the VRAM...
Can you check in CCC for the mantle API and driver version numbers please.
same situation with a single card. Weirdly enough, the built-in benchmark runs better in Mantle under certain circumstances. Very frustrating though.
tried 14.11.2, made no difference for me. Mantle is slower, uses more VRAM and the loading times are much worse. Very odd.
I've measured the drop using gpu-z as well
