    I completly understand your point of view and I'm also affected by this issue, like everyone else in fact. I'm currently playing another game but I hope they will fix SLI as soon as possible...

    Try this for a temporary fix for the flickering while using SLI. Swap from Fullscreen mode to Borderless Window mode. The flickering will go away. If you take a performance hit from doing that as I do then just swap back to Fullscreen mode. The flickering will still be gone for awhile. Eventually after a random load screen the flickering will come back. When it does just swap display modes again, & it will go away again for awhile. If that doesn't work try doing the same thing with your resolution. Swap resolutions & it will stop flickering. Both are still just temporary fixes though.

    I'd like to do that, but unfortunately I'm using DSR. DSR doesn't want to work properly as my desktop resolution, but it works fine in-game. If I do Borderless mode, I can't see the bottom half of my game. Setting the resolution to one that my monitor natively handles would work perfectly fine, but I'm recording videos at 2160p. I haven't tried doing this without SLI enabled, but it's good to know that I'm not the only one having this problem. Ruined a couple videos though.

    It never should have been an issue if you tested this properly. I get the fact that not all SLI configurations have this issue but this problem is widespead enough that it should have been caught. Give us the option to revert back to patch 1.8 and then just go away.
