    Hello,
    I'm wondering if any GT80's owners tried Battlefield 1.
    I played it on my GT80 2QE Titan SLI / 2x GTX 980M / i7 4720HQ / 16GB.
    Only got like 60 fps on ultra with the latest nvidia drivers

    Not MSI here but it currently doesn't seem to support sli. A single 980m was running at 75fps with no problems though at ultra.

    You can force sli using inspector and it scales very well to the battlefield star wars sli bits. BF1 will work perfect with sli, NVidia just decided to force single GPU for the beta,

    Watch out the scale factor of the game. You should put it to 42% to get FullHD resolution. Anything beyon that will make you lose FPS.

    My scale is already at 42% by default but I agree that it would cause fps drops if changed to a greater value.
