looks like the new NVidia drivers have a sli profile for xcom2 now.

– XCOM 2 – SLI profile added (including necessary code change)

Is it better for anyone? (i'm at work now and can't try it). Hopefully they ninja'd in some help for the single GPUs too.

@zurv: I just tried these new drivers out. I'm getting the same problem with SLI as I did when using the Tomb Raider bits - cover indicators aren't showing up. Going back to a single card.

I'm seeing the same problems you are. But the performance is much lower than with rise of the tomb raider bits. I guess the good news is for someone that doesn't want to screw around with profiles (guys... if you are multi GPU'n.. you kinda should :) ) that some SLI is working for xcom 2 now.

Also in this release was a profile for the Division beta .. that needs help too and bit can't help with that (or so i was told by NVidia - they said it need driver and engine changes)... yeah.. the Division... i'm looking at you mike! :)

I set the sli setting to 'force alternate rendering 2' in the nvidia config thingy and that worked for the most part (mostly stable 30fps max detail fxaa in 4k). Haven't tried the new drivers yet though.

UPDATE: Just tried the new drivers and they made the game perform worse then before. Granted SLI does work but as soon as I try to move a character the GPU usage drops to 50% on both cards and I'm treated to a jittery 20 fps. Even forcing alternate frame rendering 2 like before has the same problem now. Also the cover icons are still not displayed in SLI. Guess I'll be waiting for another update...

Holy shit, they STILL have that problem? That was a EU/EW thing I could swear they ironed out. How the hell is it back again?

The hotfix that was released yesterday hasn't improved SLI performance either. I understand SLI users account for 1% of pc gamers but still.

You can use my temporary solution cover icons with SLI: "SLI Simplified Cover Icons" on Nexusmods (http://www.nexusmods.com/xcom2/mods/384/?)
