there is a tool that let's you choose the profile, but that does not come from nvidia.

Anyway, you can change it with Ati by just renaming the executable... it's really that easy.
You can choose any of the SLi rendering modes ( Single GPU, Split Frame rendering, AFR1, AFR2, SLi8x, SLi16x, SLi16Q, SLi32, SLi32Q AA ) right from the NVCPL. You can set any of the modes globally or change the mode in any existing profile. As Saaya said you can also create profiles and choose any mode. No third party tool needed. Nvidia also has a load balanceing on screen display that is very helpfull in seeing what mode works best. There was a time when you couldnt change modes in the NVCPL but that was long ago,in the 6 series. Nvidia offers far more accessibility, control and tweakability over SLi then ATI and Crossfire. ATI talked about adding the same type of user contol in CCC over a year ago but it has never come to pass. A shame really.

Renameing executables also disables any app specific fixes and optimizations. Really not an acceptable way to get a game working right.

SLi Modes available in NVCPL
