    SLI is working with just the driver, there is no longer any need for us to set up at profile by ourselves, this was implemented in.. I believe November?

    Now, I have found that it does not always work to its fullest. When running without AA it sometimes will run both GPUs at only about 55%. It sounds odd, and well, wrong, but I have done several tests, and though it does not happen every time, it happens enough to be easily reproducible (or it may just be my setup that does this?).

    For your setup I would expect the following settings to be optimal

    Resolution: 1920x1080
    Multisampling: 4xAA
    General Drawing: 8
    Background Drawing: 3
    Shadows: Highest
    Ambient Occlusion: Off
    Depth of Field: On
    Disable Cutscene Effects: Off
    Hardware Mouse: On
    Texture Quality: High
    Texture Filtering: Highest

    Play around with the Depth of Field, General Drawing and Background Drawing to fine tune to you specs.

    I was running almost that exact same settings with a single GTS 250.(granted windowed 1600x900 but even at 1920x1080 it was only laggy around cities.

    If you cant max this game out everywhere with 2 GTX 460s, then i would assume SLI is just a waste of time.

    My buddy had 3 GTX280(5?) and the only thing it did for him was overheat his PC.

    Is SLI even worth it in the end?
