Odd question for crossfire

[jenyagute74]

I’m on mobile. My apologies.

So, I have 2 rx 560s, a dell motherboard (that i can not find documentation on for the life of me (yet appears to be crossfire compatible?)), and am running driver version 1.8.21.

My question is: Does crossfire have to be on in global settings for it to work?

I ask because I’ve been having trouble with crossfire recently so I figure I’ll turn it off in global settings. But when i did, the individual games still have crossfire options (the different profile options like AFR friendly and optimize 1 x 1) and I seemingly get better frame rates with the setting turned on rather than off and have none of the issues.

As a side note Radeon overly doesn’t seem to be working for me (I try the key combo (alt+r) and nothing happens) so I don’t know how else I can prove the second GPU is being used, the games just feel smoother.

Any help would be appreciated!

Uhh dude you know this is for the game called "Crossfire" not AMD's GPU bridging technology right?

Indeed. This is for the game Crossfire.
