Does BFV support AMD DX11 Crossfire or DX12 MultiGPU?

Does BFV support AMD DX11 Crossfire or DX12 MultiGPU yet or has it been disabled in the trial version of the game as in BF1 or MEA? 
CPU: i7-4790K: GPU1 R9 Fury X :GPU2 R9 Nano;  
I tested the Origin Access 10 hour Free Trial of BFV yesterday, but AMD DX11 Crossfire ond DX12 MultiGPU will not enable. 
It is only running on single R9 Fury X. 

I usually run at 4K Ultra. 

Here is example of me attempting to run DX12 MultiGPU: https://youtu.be/QCh98emYxPo?t=99

Here is initial gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyEmMZyIaJE
and here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oV6e6jPw0L0

As you can see, framerates are very low compared to the performance I get in BF1:

Also DX12 in BFV seems to have a problem with frame rate dips versus BF1 run on the same machine and drivers. 
I am looking forward to testing BFV on DX11 Crossfire / DX12 MultiGPU with R9 Fury X/ Nano. 
I do have a newer RX Vega 64 Liquid and PowerColor Red Dragon Vega 56 cards 
 on the way for testing,and I wanted to look at running that in DX11 Crossfire / DX12 MultiGPU on those as well. 

Thanks.

Hey @colesdav

If you're getting some low frame rates in Battlefield V I recommend searching "frame rate" in the search bar at the top of this board: 

 

https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/bd-p/battlefield-v-technical-issues-en/page/3

 

The search results should pop up many solutions that have worked for Battlefield fans on PC.


Make sure you have the latest Windows 10 update too. It seems like that is a common issue which is dropping frame rates. There's a link on how to download that here

 

 

Here is the Battlefield V PC Player's Performance Guide.

 

 

Good luck out there on the battlefield and always play the objective!

To me BFV at 4K ultra on a CPU limited system those low FPS numbers don't seem too unrealistic. I think your 4 core CPU is struggling to feed enough frames to the graphics card (should they work in multigpu).

The CPU Utilization is pretty low, that i7-4790K runs at 4.6GHz. It can be overclocked up to 4.8 GHz on BFV. It's 4 core 8 thread. I do see some FPS drops at times during explosions though. I will soon find out as I am building new AMD Ryzen/Threadripper PC soon. Thanks.

It's not just you man, I have 3 R9 390's in crossfire, they all work fine in BF4/BF1, yet only single GPU works in BFV.  I have tried the BF1 profile, and it doesn't do anything.  I have also tried different drivers as well.

 

EVGA X99 FTW-K

6850K @ 4.5

32gb Corsair Dominator's DDR4 3200

Have a moderately high end rig, its not a hardware issue

Any progress here with crossfire.....it would make great sense now that Nvidia sucks and no one is getting better than 1080ti performance the next 2-3 years, so only other option is multi gpu performance. You can buy a 1080 for 450 or a 2080 that us 30% faster for 699 - that is not a better offer.... Just more cost..

I'm running a Radeon R9 295x2 and can't get crossfire enabled so I'm stuck with only 1 of 2 GPU's active.

Hey all,

This was mentioned in the latest update from the Battlefield team.

 

https://forums.battlefield.com/en-us/discussion/161023/battlefield-vs-known-issues-list

 

  • Game Crashes After Chapter 1: Overture Update
  • Status: Workaround provided below.
  • If you find Battlefield V is crashing post-update and you have an AMD graphics card, updating your Radeon graphics driver will make things more stable.
  • We’ve had reports of crashing on AMD cards with Radeon driver version 18.11.1 in single-player and multiplayer modes. We’re working with AMD on this, but in the meantime updating to Radeon version 18.2.1 will improve things for you.

They are working with AMD for users out there with this hardware. We'll do our best to update you all as soon as possible.
