 Topic: X99X problems with sliPosted: 22 Apr 2015 at 11:57pm |

Im in a never ending battle with the Evga 970 FTW cards. I've contacted Evga's tech support. They try contacting asrock's. As well known the issues with 970s. I tried both cards single in the top slot. They work fine alright. When SLied they have terrible stuttering, and graphic corruption.
1. reinstalled windows from 8.1 2. clean driver install 3. bios update to 1.8 4. new hdmi cable 5. new bridge/ swapped fingers of the cards 6. unparked all cores 7. down clocked cards 8. PSU swap for another 1k enermax 9. set the pci slots to gen 1-3 any other thoughts? Evga seems to think it could be a mobo issue Edited by chosin - 23 Apr 2015 at 12:01am |

Greetings, this is ASRock Technical Support Department.
Because we don't have GTX 970 to test now, we test GTX980 with SLI enabled, the system can pass all the 3D Mark test and run Call of Duty about 30 mins without stuttering. Please refer the picture as below:  In your case, We recommend you to install one graphics card to PCIE3 slot to verify. If possible, please install the graphics card to another motherboard to verify. If any, please contact us, we will help you for further check. Kindest Regards, ASRock TSD |

Can you install one card to pcie 3 to test without it causing problems with the rest of the system. I don't have another system that is sli capable. Is there a tech support number for me to call? or do i just put a ticket in as a request on the website. Call of duty is not that much of a demanding game in comparison to evolve and shadow of mordor and such. Thank you

We have tested Palit Geforce GTX970 with
SLI enabled, playing Call of Duty and the graphics shows smoothly.
Please refer the video as below link

We offer some suggestions to you for
verifying this issue, please refer to the followings to check your system. 1. Please monitor the CPU loading, temperature is any changed when the symptom happens. 2. If possible, please un-install the unnecessary
PCIE device and only connect two pcs VGA cards to verify. 3. If possible, please run graphic
benchmark i.e. 3D mark to compare the performance between single VGA card and 2
pcs with SLI enabled.
And we wish to know the following
information to do the further check. 1. Which game or test program do you test
with and get the symptom? 2. How often does the symptom happen? 3. How long does the symptom occur during
games or program? i.e. it happens after playing games 10 minutes. 4. If possible, please take a video to show
the symptom. Thank you for your cooperation. If you?™d like to phone my technical support team, please refer to the following information to contact our US Branch TSD for assistance.

We have tested Unigine Heaven, we also can
see the stuttering issue after enable Vsync.
However, we tested with single GTX970, the
issue persist, so the issue may not related to SLI function. Please refer the
video as the link: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0By6uXQzKtvmramowLXBDYUNPbWc/edit
Besides, we also test single GTX970 on another vendor's board and can still see the stuttering issue. Please refer the video as the
link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpqDBj8K0G8 Since the issue happen with two different
vendors. After one or two stuttering graphics, we think the issue is related to
the test software.

Thanks for testing it out its not really my concern but i see that stutter in games. With one card it seems to be better than with two. But objects in the environment starts to degrade also ( jaggies blurry images) Evolve, shadow of mordor, you can look at GTA5 in the above post.

After we check your video, the display seems show almost smoothly and the FPS is also stable.
We think the little jaggies blurry image is related to graphics material of GTAV. We recommend you to Enable the VSync for try. Kindest Regards, ASRock TSD Edited by ASRock_TSD - 05 May 2015 at 5:39pm |
