[PC] Crossfire not utilising GPU's fully. And errors
When using Crossfire my GPU usage fluctuates really badly. When looking lower intensity areas the GPU's usage is 90% and I get 60 fps on highest as expected but when looking at areas that are more intense such as the EDZ the GPU usage drops to below 20% and i get unplayable fps.
I've tried a couple drivers. Each using all Crossfire modes
17.10.2 supports Crossfire on D2 but has this problem. Also runs ok without Crossfire
17.7.2 doesn't support Crossfire on D2 and i get lower fps than 17.10.2
Currently trying out some different drivers.

[i](I understand I'm not going to get 100+fps 4k smooth experience but I do meet the minimum requirements and should be able to run this game at 1080p 60fps right?)[/i]
Anyone else having this problem? And does anyone have the solution?
Thanks for taking the time to read this ;)
[UPDATE]
17.10.1 same problem - Issue only in D2 - runs worse on single GPU
17.10.2 has the same issue in other games - Tweaked some settings in-game and managed to get a playable framerate. Exceeding 80 fps in some areas and dropping below 30 in others areas. (Currently using this atm)
17.9.8 Same problem - Unplayable on 1 GPU
17.10.3 same problem.
17.11.1 same problem
17.11.2 Given up at this point
Note: I have a gut feeling that it is just because I have old hardware and the updates are designed for newer hardware like the rx vega.
