    Any Way to get SLI to work with FFXIV?

    I noticed that FFXIV doesn't seem to recognize my second card (gtx 460's).

    I did a search of forums and couldn't find anything that clearly answers the question whether there was a way to make it work. Thought I would make a thread about it for others out there wondering the same thing.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    SLI/Xfire are kind of a grey line right now, don't think anyone has gotten it to work in the game itself so far.

    Give it a few weeks I guess, I don't think they'll release this game without a proper fullscreen mode and SLI support.

    ^ You didn't do much research if you came to that conclusion.

    Anyway, it works but you have to edit the SLI profile, there's a guide here: http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?p=1036084148

    Can you report any performance gains if you get a chance please?

    I also have dual GTX 460's and used that same trick to force SLI, but with not much of a performance gain. I wasn't expecting much since it's more of a "workaround", but if anything, the FPS seemed to have remained the same.

    my fps has gone up by around 3-8 on average.

    259.32 driver seems to be working in SLI. Using x2 480 GTX and 5878x1080 res and I'm getting 30-50 FPS. 1600x1024 res is yielding constant 45+ FPS.

    Link for driver: http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/top...vidia-desktop/

    Anyone know if there's a way to enable 3D vision yet? D:
