    Default $1500 new comp....1-2 frames when I dual box [SOLVED]

    With only 2 accounts open, my frame rates go down to less than 5 on both accounts. Here is my setup:

    • i5-760 @ 4.0 ghz (stable prime 95)
    • 16 gb G.Skill memory (stable memtest)
    • 5870 (2) crossfired
    • SSD - G.Skill Phoenix pro


    • 1920 x 1080
    • ultra settings


    Obviously my "ultra" settings is going to be the first thing everyone comments about; but with a ~ $1500 setup, I don't see why it can't handle 2 accounts on ultra settings. I've tried adjusting the settings down to high and it becomes playable, but I'm just wondering if there's anyone out there that has a similar or slower setup that is able to dual box on ultra settings. My score on futuremark is comparable to others with identical system.


    EDIT: Problem solved!!! It turns out flash player was the issue. When a flash video is open (youtube, etc), it will down clock my gpu to a 2-D setting. This means that it brings my GPU clock down to 400 from 850 and memory to 900 from 1200. All I did was right click on the flash video, select settings, and UNCHECK "hardware acceleration".
