GTX 970 issues

[JaxsonWest]

Hi, 

I just got the new gtx 970 however SL tells me my PC does not meet minimum requirements.

I have all the latest drivers for the graphics cards, im guessing SL hasn't updated for the 900 series yet...does anyone have any idea how long they normally take after a new GPU release as SL is almost unbearable to be on right now.

That's a welcome upgrade!

you can edit the gpu table in the viewer folder in the program files on your Hdd

 

add this line to the file called GPU_table copy paste it all in

What mobo do you currently have ? And are you still happy with your new GTX 970? I am thinking of building a new pc.

Also issues, i only get about 45 FPS on high, and less then 20 on ultra.

My CPU (35C) and GFX card (58C) don't even get hot, looks like they are not used to the max.
