> Hello, I see this post includes the term “SLI issues” and while I realize this is meant for people using the workaround (which to my knowledge disables weather effects, if it does not then please correct me), I would like to add to the discussion that we are still waiting for official SLI support from Dice.

Not having SLI at launch was a bit of a surprise being that BF was always a series you could rely on for this, although with BF1 I seem to remember having to wait a bit too. I realize that getting RTX working was priority, but now that it and DLSS seems to be stabilized, can we at least get an ETA or a solid yes or no whether we will see SLI or DX12 mGPU in BFV?

Yes Dice should be able to tell us if we will get SLI support for BFV and an ETA.

I don’t expect it to come. They may sneak support in for it at a later date, but at this point I wouldn’t hold out too much hope. Perform the steps listed and enjoy SLI.

Sadly you are probably right and I am not holding my breath. The SLI guide is very helpful but it would be nice to be able to enjoy the correct weather effects with a proper SLI Profile.

We should not have to use workarounds to get SLI working, a proper official SLI Profile should be there at launch.

It seems that the 2080Ti does not support DLSS at 1440p, only 4K.

Can we have one comment from the devs about the SLI-issue?

Given how thinly-stretched the BFV team is and the sheer number of issues that are plaguing this game right now, do you actually expect anyone to say anything about SLI? They have way too many other things to focus on right now. Don’t hold your breath waiting.

Yes, i expect that because it´s one of the other big issue this game have.

I know you are right, but still hoping 🙂 we need to keep this thread alive and maybe one day you never know………….

It doesn’t even register on their RADAR for “big issues”. I can almost promise you that. Their list of “big issues” at this point probably includes the bug fixes, further content, and whatever else is next for the Battlefield franchise. SLI and mGPU is low noise for them.

I’d suggest resetting your expectations, or you’re going to continue to be disappointed.

I strongly suggest getting the i7 8700k pushing 2 1080 Ti’s if and when they allow SLI for this game

That’s an NVidia limitation, not a Dice one. You’ll need to yell at NVidia. And don’t expect an answer, because the hardware _can’t_ do it.

Are you serious the hardware can’t do it? That’s a total cop out. Many people who buy the 2080 TI intend to only play it on 1440p monitors. Why would the hardware allow you to play on 4K which is more taxing on a GPU, then on 1440p, which is less strenous. The card should have enough ram, and speed to be able to tackle that right?

That’s not how DLSS works, unfortunately. The tensor cores that are handling the DLSS can’t keep up. The 2080Ti can handle 1440p at a frame rate in which the tensors _can’t_. Therefore, NVidia won’t allow the 2080Ti to do DLSS in 1440p. Only 4K at a slower frame rate.

NVidia-imposed limitation, not a Dice one.

Once again nothing for SLI users in todays update.

Then why has it been enabled on Metro Exodus and Anthem? New updates have enabled it.

After the update I get this weird screen tearing and ghosting or flicker on textures when I move the mouse. I’m running 980s in sli but I see the same screen tearing when one card is being ran. I’m also gaming on a gsync monitor.
