Hi guys, i just recently notice that when i switch to dx11 mode.. there's poor crossfire scaling as pictured below.. but when i turn off dx11 and in DX9 mode + enabled Maldo's HD mod (2nd Picture), crossfire scaling would sky rocket to 93%... I have 2x 2gb 6950 btw. I havent had the chance to get my hands on my pc in 3 weeks due to some busy schedule, so I gathered all necessary info in order to update this game to its latest version, Maldo HD texture pack included. I was surprised when the patch 1.9 along with DX11 and HD texture pack came out...=D So, what gives here? is this old news?.........

DX11+HD Textures


DX11 off+HD Texture+Maldo's HD texture mod

Yeah, you need to switch to a different graphcis setting, then switch back again, for crossfire to kick in on my machine.

Just out of interest, what CPU have you got?

Crysis 1 only had 40-50% scaling at best at first. The problem is that catalysist 11.6 isn't really optimised for Crysis 2 dx11 for crossfire. However there is apparently a big boost from the 11.7 beta drivers but they are use at your own risk until the offical drivers are out.

ive got gtx 480tri sli, since patch and dx11 hd, My scaleing is at 50% ish across all cards, CPU sandy 5ghz 8 gig mem

5ghz sandy is beasty. I'm gonna go for a Sandy Ex or Ivy Bridge.

It's wierd, because when I switch the graphics about, I do get near 100% use on both GPUs:
