Edit and Addendum: Forget staring at Task Manager as I just did for 5 minutes, these WU's look for CPU time it seems almost never when you're trying to watch for it. Just make sure nothing looks weird in there, that should be at 0% almost always (that's a recent change btw) and your Core_a3 consumption at about 99, cranking your smp's.

Power Mngmt settings: all to OFF, pls., and no scn svr, your scrn svr is now your finger. Thumbs Up

Don't get d9iscouraged, Micro, we'll get this, it'll likely be something simple, usually is. I assume you've checked your config for the easy stuff like typos in names, passkeys etc? OK, then before doing anything more advanced, let's get a benchmark for what you're currently experiencing from what: what are your ppd for all three cards on two current but differing series, 800x and 8019/20? In ppd on 8019 I nail 16000-17000 on my 465's and 12000-13000 on the 550ti. It's about a grand less on the 800x series.

Use Precision or Afterburner to make the same determinations for %GPU usage. Answer or a clue might be right there. And if you watch Core_15 in Task Manager does it take a percent or two for an instant at least every once in a while?

Try adding the flag -forcegpu nvidia_fermi .
