G-Sync menu question [SLI]

Talk about NVIDIA G-SYNC, a variable refresh rate (VRR) technology. G-SYNC eliminates stutters, tearing, and reduces input lag. List of G-SYNC Monitors.

They actually seem a bit lower. I'll have to do some testing and see how it differs if I disable SLI

Do you know if it is for sure using SLI, sometimes the nvidia 3D settings settings don't always work.
If you have a second screen you could monitor the GPU usage on it and see if both are actually being used.

It is for sure using SLI. I always monitor my temps and usage percent in the upper left corner.

I am interested in this data, too. Let us know!

Also, have you tried ULMB? Especially press the button while viewing www.testufo.com/photo .... With two titans, you can play a lot of games at strobe-worthy frame rates. Try the grappling hooks on the rails in bioshock infinite - looks real nice using ULMB + VSYNC ON. Less dizzying without the motion blur. That said, GSYNC vs ULMB is a personal preference, with GSYNC gaining favor at lower/stuttery frame rates, and ULMB becoming more useful during fast games running high/consistent frame rates.

Ok I just installed it yesterday. I'll run some tests and see what works better for specific types of games. Because I have 2 titans I can certainly maintain high refresh rates so maybe the ULMB setting could benefit my system a bit more.

I'm going to Install mine tomorrow. I have dual 780's, so I should be able to get some stats too.

Hmmm my OSD is not saying GSYNC mode in games either, it just says NORMAL, halp ? I don't have SLI just one Titan.
