Everything went smooth and without a hitch during and after installation, thankfully.

Played some BF3 Ultra preset @ 1920x1200, no vsync, and I'm averaging mostly over 100 fps but do get dips that drop to the high 60's during intense combat, but not always. Is this normal? Map is Kharg Island, if that helps. Also, cards are at default speeds.
Sounds pretty normal. Check what your CPU/GPU usage are after you get a dip in fps for curiosity sake to see whats causing it.
