…………..And thats it!
I saw around a 30% increase in performance using 2x r9 280’s allowing me to power my eyefinity setup 40-70fps @ *5760×1080 (70-120fps @ *1080)
I read it worked on x2 7870’s also
–possible crash when alt-tabing, I haven’t got one.
(using 16.7.2, Presumably works on any newer crimson version)
