I thought there was a thread like this but can't find it now...

I setup eyefinity 2 days before the patch, I was cruising on 6048x1080p with ultra minus msaa and motion blur. I didn't run fraps but everything felt good, framerates were between 60-100, but mainly, felt good.

Since the patch to keep the same smoothness I need to run LOW, maybe medium defaults. On high, even if the frames are over 60 it feels horrible. It's too the point where I will have to abandon eyefinity until another patch or driver fixes it. Since the patch I tried basically every driver combo out, some are better/worse than others but at the end of the day only setting everything to low makes it feel similar to before the patch. Apples to apples I may have only lost 15-20 fps (not a small amount), but the feel became totally sticky and not fluid. Too bad cause I was really enjoying it...!
 
probably broke something trying to fix nvidia surround and they failed to fix that completely. DICE has a lot of kinks to work out still in the mean time i would stick with playing multiplayer on one display unfortunately

^This. We've seen multi-monitor issues constantly in our community, and haven't seen anything to suggest that it's working properly all-around.
 
Hrm I haven't lost any performance with eyefinity portrait. Native Res works well now except for misaligned markers.
 
I know this is asking a lot but reinstall ur OS , drivers and reinstall the game.
 
i run single-monitor and my performance seems to have dropped, too. before i used to play on "High" with AA enabled - perfect 60FPS. Now it dips down to 30 on large maps, I have to set everything to low to make it smooth....hope they get it sorted soon.
 
I've found the same thing - frame rate has dropped considerably since the new patch. Where I would see 50-70fps I'm now seeing 30-40.

This is with a very similar setup, 6990s Crossfired, Eyefinity 6048x1200 with all on full except no MSAA.
 
sounds more like a X-fire issue then eyefinity. I would love to play this game again, but just can't stand it in 1 screen or blurry from the non-native res... Hopefully we'll be out of Beta soon.
 
Well I've found I can keep smooth gameplay at medium with an overclock on my cards. Xfire wise they both run flatout 99% ALL the time. Far cry from my slightly modified ultra of 2 days ago but at least it's smooth and playable.
