You don't -- One second after each client launches is as fast as they can open up. I think it's been this way since... forever.

Don't want them to change that, startup is when I go get my coffee.

Very nice. I would play a bunch of accounts if wow was free, since I can't get myself to pay any more money to Blizz.

I don't know what overclocking software you're using that shows only one GPU active, but I imagine either SLI is disabled or... you're reading it wrong? /shrug

Im using MSI Afterburner, and through the nvidia control panel wether i have SLI enabled or disabled there is only activity on one of the GPUs on the 690. When i play battlefield 4 it utilizes both GPUs but i think it has something to do with running the 690 in windowed mode not activating SLI, and also that im only using one monitor? I dont know.

Weird I watched a video where someone popped 10 open all at same time. Could have been something other than ISBoxer, because my memory isn't that great.

Exactly! Except replace coffee with water. :)

as to the duel gpu cards there is a forum post or maybe it is in the wiki for isboxer that it will not use both chips. That's why it is recommended to get a single powerfull gpu with high ram (3 gig minimum for a serious boxer)

SLI definitely works in Windowed mode. I know this because I use it almost every day in Windowed mode; however, CrossFire does not. So, if you buy a dual-GPU AMD card for multiboxing you're going to be left feeling like you paid way too much for a single GPU.

Either way, I always recommend purchasing single GPU cards.
