Not even Multi-GPU Support For Batman: Arkham Knight
Ok, the game release pretty much is a disaster eh ? After all that happened, now you do not get multi-GPU support either. This actually is an Nvidia Gameworks supported title ? The promised re-release of Batman: Arkham Knight on Steam did not pack any performance improvements at all (compared to its Interim patch). Now SLI and Crossfire is not supported either.
Today Warner Bros stated that there won't be any patch to add multi-GPU support :-(
We’ve been working with our development and graphics driver partners over the last few months to investigate utilizing multi-GPU support within Batman: Arkham Knight. The result was that even the best case estimates for performance improvements turned out to be relatively small given the high risk of creating new issues for all players. As a result we’ve had to make the difficult decision to stop work on further multi-GPU support. We are disappointed that this was not practical and apologize to those who have been waiting for this feature.

With a single 980 Ti this should run well mate. It's SLI and Crossfire that's the problem.
The game was awesome fun, in my opinion, especially with the Batmobile, but yeah it would have been even better if my hardware could have been fully utilised. Definitely would have done another playthrough if the CF support was fixed. A damn shame.
It s fine with a single 980Ti @ 1440p, even my 970 was able to handle it.

Yes, the game is amazing. The performance issues are blown out of proportion, it stutters a bit while driving around in the Batmobil, but nowhere near unplayable like some say. It's more of an annoyance. The only think you have to do is disable Interactive Smoke. That setting just murders performance unfortunately. Disable that, crank everything else on max, and you get 60 fps all the time with some stutter while driving around.
Because of the crap launch and performance issues, people actually miss the fact that it's an amazing game, definitely the best Batman since Arkham Asylum.
I didn't experience any stutter while driving with smoke and everything maxed out, not on my previous 970 neither my current card, but then again, neither did have stuttering on other games that some 970 users had stuttering with.
I did use quite some time with frame-time monitoring to see if it was my eyes that where wrong too, plus used hours trying to figure out why some got stuttering where they really shouldn't have any.
Mainly choice of hardware combination, BIOS settings and minor tweaks seems to be the lead, but it differed from system to system, some probably never got their 970 running at full potential, probably mainly because of the way the 500MB partition swaps data.
NVidia should have done better homework, cause they just can't expect that people have optimal conditions for a below top end card.

it plays perfect on 980ti, idk how it plays on lower end cards, but that is a bad point.
you don't need to have overpowered hardware for a game like that, 960 can easily max it out, or close to max out, 970 should at least run it around 70fps on maxed out.
Shame, behind the curtain of the tech issues, there is an awesome game that it's sad cause many player won't see it shine.

That's not the point, all previous games support Sli, this should also.
Seriously, you can pull it of with ease with a single one of those Titans....
