    I have a P370EM and since 2 weeks now i start having a thin vertical black line on the left side of the screen and some minor wobling .
    The line appears only on 1920x1080 resolution on some games(mass effect 3 anno 2070 etc.) and on msi kombastor when i run the physx on 1920x1080
    Both of the cards work fine alone on master GPU. If i switch positions slave to master it gets worse.
    I tried Clevo catalyst beta everything Any ideas?

    Sell them and get a single 680M, install the custom vBIOS and rock any game out there. If you MUST have dual GPU, then SLI 675MX should be fine and likely less issues than crap AMD drivers.
    - Not trolling. Honestly this is your best solution.

    I never had any problems with drivers its not an Enduro model. I am thinking maybe is a xfire cable problem or the ebay eurocom card(2nd one) is failing.
    I dont know much about xfire cards thats why i asked for help.
