Dual-Graphics Support

[Jerome]

AMD A8-7600 @ 3.1GHz
2x4GB @ 1866MHz
Radeon R7 240

I bought this game when it first launched on steam. Back then, it wasn't playable but when it was available for a free to play weekend I was able to play it with better performance. Now that it is on sale for halloween, I'm thinking of buying it again but I'm unsure if I'll be getting a GTX 750 ti/950/960 soon.

Any chance that this game will support dual-graphics so that I can at least play and enjoy it before I am able to upgrade my GPU?

There is 0 performance gain in sli because the game does not support SLI.

You can force the engine to use SLI which WILL give a performance gain. Google it, YouTube it. See for yourself.

If you offset some of the workload to a 2nd GPU wether it is natively supported or not it is going to give performance gain even if you can only offset a small amount of it. (As i previously stated most people report this at abotu 20%)

Does not add any performance gain let alone 20%, when you get some facts together send some links this way

Soon as my new rig is setup ill benchmark it myself and post in the forum to show it hows that?

There are plenty of videos and articles to do with SLI being forced in Ark. Sorry your to much of an idiot to actually look things up... Or even understand how SLI works for that matter -.-

Forcing SLI/CF to be on can even give worse FPS while showing utilization on both GPSs.

I have a pair of cards (970s) run in SLI, I disable it just for playing Ark because currently it decreases performance. Eventually they will get the support in but currently performance isn't what is key at this time, that will come in a few months once they move into the Beta stages

I bought the game again. I was able to play it again for an hour (15-20fps all settings low). Today I tried Launch Ark ('No Sky Effects') -USEALLAVAILABLECORES -sm4 -d3d10, when I started the game in SP. Windows will prompt me to close shootergame because of low memory, afterwards I had to push the reset button because I had my self stuck on a black screen. It already happened twice, it loads for quite a long time so I'm not happy about it. Too bad I'm still having trouble running it. Now I just have to wait, either they come up and get to a point where they can optimize it enough so that it can run on my r7 240 or I come up with a hardware upgrade.
