Guess some should read FS~Phat's article in the technical posts about settings and ram usage. I have a system much lower in performance than most but use Sli. I have included some screen shots low down near Tower Bridge similar to the posts here along with screens of my video settings. I have only a 19" monitor so my resolution is 1280 x 960. As you will see there can be a major difference in performance by turning down some (not all) settings.
See my sig for system. I'm also using Nvidia inspector and have experimented with Sli set up.
As you will see from the screens of London in the top RH corner the V/ram is at full use but the rest of the system is well balanced . My cards are from different stables and the Asus has always run cooler than the EVGA.
