Working SLI bits for maximum performance

[Knight]

Since there doesn't seem to be a post about this, I figured I'd go ahead and share.

Long story short, DX1x SLI bits 0x2A0115F5 yields perfect SLI scaling. https://i.imgur.com/VFUTKh7.png

Comparison shots taken at 5120x2880 max settings to bypass any CPU bottleneck.

Edit - For reference, the screenshots were taken on a SLI 1080Ti system with a 4.2GHz 5820k

The fix is simple and takes all but a minute or two. Simply grab Nvidia Inspector (http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/nvidia-inspector-download.html), extract and run it. Then click on the button next to your driver version, select the Black Desert profile, and replace the default bits (0x040000F5) with 0x2A0115F5 and apply.

Hope it helps!

Interesting!! Thanks for this.

And just out of curiosity -- for curiosity's sake -- do you still see pop-ins at all on your 1080 Ti SLI rig? I'm curious because I was very nearly going to get a farking Titan V, but since it's not optimised or designed for gaming, I backed out of it. So an SLI option may be better, not to mention cheaper as well for an 8K monitor.

You're welcome!

Also, yeah, even at 5120x2880 max settings, there's still a good amount of LOD pop in. Seems to be an engine issue more than anything else.

Aye, an engine related issue indeed, but still, it's always good to get confirmation, nonetheless. : )

Also, lovin' your 1080 Ti SLI rig, BTW! Hardcore!
