He111,

Here's a recent screen shot from my system showing EVGA Precision Tools readout in the r/h top corner. you will see that my 1gb cards are running at near max V/ram, card temps are very close to being the same (the Asus card has always run a few deg cooler than the EVGA) the % of use is near the same with both cards and they are running the same clocks. The % of use does vary between the two cards depending on which card is carrying most of the graphics at the time but they are always within 5% of each other. Check and see if your cards usage are about even when running C.o.D. if they aren't your Sli isn't working. What will show is one card or the other is maybe using only about 10% while the other maybe using about 80% and the temp of the card using about 10% will be down also. Are you using EVGA Precision tool or similar? MSI also has a tool that does a similar thing and these are free downloads from the respective sites and are compatibile with all Nvidia based cards. I couldn't balance my cards succesfully without this tool as they came with different clock speeds and voltages. I know you have said that you don't want to use Nvidia Inspector because of spam but I have never had spam with that software.

I've uploaded another screen shot taken with Sli disabled, as you will see Card 1 is now running near max card 2 is idling. FPS are down also
