1. Add "dream.exe" to your NVIDIA 3D Profile Settings
( ->Nvidia Control Panel ->Manage 3D Settings ->Program Settings => Add)
2. Download [www.guru3d.com] & open NVIDIA Inspector
(note: also extract "CustomSettingNames_en-EN.xml")
2.1 Go to “Driver Profile Settings” --> Set Global Driver Profile to "dream.exe"
2.2 Then set "SLI compatibility bits" to 0x03402005 (CS:Global Offensive,Firefall,Dishonered...)
2.3 & set all other settings as shown below... --> Apply changes
3. Enjoy DREAM with SLI enabled
(Test-) System Specs:
I5 2500K @4500MHz
GTX 460 SLI @840MHz / 2000MHz
16GB DDR3 @1600MHz
120GB SSD
Win 8.1 Pro 64bit

Tested on the following NVIDIA Drivers:
  • 326.80 BETA
  • ...
  • 337.88 WHQL


Attention
Unfortunately after installing a new Nvidia Driver, you have to set your SLI Profile again!
Even with the "Express Installation"...
=> You can "prevent" that by Exporting all customized profiles (with Nvidia Inspector) and import them back after the Nvidia Driver Installation!

Thank you very much for the guide! Works fine on my Lenovo Y510p with 2x Geforce GT 755M.
By the way, in the Nvidia Settings, you can enable "Show SLI Visual Indicator" in the Menu "3D Settings" (not "Manage 3D Settings" on the left) to see if sli is enabled in the game.

1. ok, you don't have a "CPU Bottleneck"
2. Try to disable Hyperthreading (some games have problems with that)
3. Have you followed the tutorial exactly? (Look if settings really ahve been applied/safed)
ps: I'll try the SLI Profile by myself, as soon as I got some time...

i7 2600k @ 4.4 ghz

But I am thinking it may be an issue with my GPUs.

SRY, I haven't played DREAM since summer, I'll have a look into it...
ps: just in case, which CPU do you use?

Doesnt work for me. Same GTX 460's. I get extreme flashing and very low frame rates.
