    So idk if crossfire is working properly or not I have it enabled in ccc and seems to work at parts in the game but pretty crappy at times lol... I understand its not going to double the performance but it should drastically improve if im correct?? Any opinions?

    I would use 13.1 with the CAP2. Use driver sweeper to get rid of all the old drivers before doing a fresh install of 13.1 and CAP2.

    Running two GPUs with either SLI & Crossfire enabled does not give you double the performance of a single card.

    If you check out the Heaven 4.0 benchmark thread, his "crossfired" cards score below Sam's single 7970. TheTechDude, are you sure you have a crossfire bridge on the GPUs? Could you also post a screenshot of GPU-Z and CCC showing crossfire enabled?

    Also crossfire or SLI doesn't work when running in a windowed, must be full screen.
