Bump. Anyone know what this means?
I assume you get this under load (playing a game/etc)? Or is it with NO GPU load?
I think this is when the load is split to the 3 cards you use, thus no one card is loaded 100%.
So, each card is capped at a certain % max when all 3 cards are in use. :)

Do you have one or two or more monitors, by the way?
