Sli with 680 Directu II TOP 2GB.

KitsuHellscream · Jun 29, 2013

wanted to ask whether this could have a sli configuration of these two graphs already mentioned ...

NZXT Phantom White
Asus ASUS P8P67 Deluxe
Intel i7 2700k
16GB RAM RIPJAWS 1600
Thermaltake Cooling SpinQ
Power Supply: Corsair 1050W Modular
DirectUII 680GTX TOP (mentioned)

I would like to know whether to go since it takes 3 slots and 3 slots and spare me if any of the PCIE could put another graphics card ... Also if a configuration would be appropriate to do so.

Sorry my bad english.

You can't. Both these 680 take 3 slots, meaing that the card put below will block the air intake of the card put above, resulting in very high temperature for both of them. Did you already have these 2 680, or only have one?

KitsuHellscream · Jun 29, 2013

No, I have not even these two, only one, was thinking of buying then one with equivalent clock speeds but 2 slots, you think it would work?

Example, lightning xtreme 2gb MSI 680?

Madn3ss795 · Jun 29, 2013

Any 680 that only take 2 slots would work. MSI GTX680 lightning would be a grear candidate. Just put your thick Asus card at the 2nd PCi-E X16 slot, and them slimmer one at the 1st.

You've helped me a lot, thanks for the help, this what I want because I'm Streamer, and I have a little graphical cut 1080p streaming (I have good internet connection).

2 680GTX would amount 690/Titan? The performance obtained over?

Madn3ss795 · Jun 29, 2013

2 680 in SLI is stronger than either a Titan or either a 690, but in trade for more heats, of course.

KitsuHellscream · Jun 29, 2013

Hmmmm, now I have fear of temperatures ... Right now I have to stand at 30 ° ... think that will increase too much?

Madn3ss795 · Jun 29, 2013

Both the 680 dỉect CU top and the MSI lightning have great cooling design, so you shouldn't worry about temp increase in this case

KitsuHellscream · Jun 29, 2013

Thank you so much, you helped me too much ^ ^ I can now think calmly buy ^ ^

You're welcome

And remember to pick the best answer :bounce:

Depends on the MoBo and slot spacing....Asus WS series has 3 empty slots between the PCIE slots which leaves me empty slots between the GFX cards. Many boards leave ya no space even with a 2 slot version of a card.

You'll oft see SLI x 4 w/ little space between the cards and this should be no different if you have two empty slots between .... since the extra slot is to remove heat

It's working here:

No doubt upper card will run hotter and yta case cooling will be important here, more so related to be able t get enough cool air in the case and around the cards. I like to use cases that allow extra fans to be mounted behind the HD cages and this, (as well as side fans) helps alot.
