Ive been using dual amd cards for years, and I still have no idea if the profiles are active or not. Am I suppose to activate the profile before I start every game? :confused:

If I have done somthing right, I still never notice the difference.

IIRC, You install the CAPs and they watch for the exe for the game, then configure as needed.

In short, you just install them and it works.

Yes, install it. The CAP profiles can work for both single cards and multiple cards.

6990 is a dual GPU card, but it uses an internal Crossfire link. It's still Crossfire.
