Don Roodborst Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 So, it isn't using the video card for the video? Do you have your monitor hooked up to onboard video? Not sure what you mean by running through the gpu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DraconianWinter Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 yes i do have it run through the video card but my video card has two gpus in it and i am showing that my gpus are not even being used at all for sl only the cpu is and it is being used at near full capasity to run the thing so not sure why that is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tristan Greymoon Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Unless you have a APU on your CPU you are using your Video Cards for rendering... nuff said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sephy McCaw Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 i do believe that it is a problem with the 4800 series cards themselves, its is actually being used(you can tell that just by the fact your getting a moderate rate of FPS ie not under 5 fps) it just doesnt get reported in any monitoring program that i ever saw do believe its an opengl thing though, try a dx game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
