I have two gtx 470 and disabling SLI the game is smoother, no more stuttering.
What are your nvdia control panel or inspector settings?

All pretty much standard. Haven't had any time to fiddle with things yet, apart from enabling SLI.

Any settings you recommend?

Are you saying the only thing you did is enable SLI in the Nvidia control panel?

Just use Afterburner or Precision you'll see your FPS but it'll also see your second card doing nothing.

Sorry r0bc, just remembered seeing this after making my post above. Great minds think alike!

Hurricanedriver, sticking in a 2nd video card, connecting the SLI connector, then simply clicking on "enable SLI" in the Nvidia Control Panel won't get you there with CoD, unfortunately. It SHOULD -- but it won't. Take r0bc's suggestion and download the Precision EVGA monitoring utility. It's free, installs easily, and instantly tells you what your cards are doing performance-wise and temperature-wise. Otherwise, you're tuning up a car with no tachometer!

Next, download Nvidia Inspector (another free utility, bless 'em all). This will tweak the SLI settings for "launcher.exe" (which just happens to be the executable file that launches Cliffs of Dover via Steam). With the tweaks done in Nvidia Inspector the two video cards you've spent the big bucks on will start doing what they're supposed to: split the workload for increased overall performance!

You've come this far: finish the race!

So your Custom Profile for launcher.exe isn't working for you?

Working SLI-Bits to edit with NVIDIA Inspector 1.9.5.5

Click at Profile Settings (besides the "Driver Version"),
create Custom Profile and click "add application to current profile" to add launcher.exe.
edit:
SLI compatibility bits (DX10): 0x000000F5

NVIDIA predefined SLI mode on DirectX 10: SLI_PREREFINED_MODE_DX10_FORCE_AFR

click on "Apply changes"

Actually Snapper for me its not, it runs alot smoother with one card and I was asking HurricaneDriver what he did to make it work.
