Hello, so I got the ASUS MAXIMUS VII FORMULA, but it still hasn't arrived. I was wondering if this SLI bridge that I have sitting in my room will connect both of the top GPUs? Is it too small?
 
What is the model of your GPU cards? Most current SLI bridges are the same. As far as I know, an SLI bridge is an SLI bridge. You should use the one that comes with the motherboard as it will be of sufficient length for the layout of the PCIe slots.

I don't see why the model of my GPU cards matters, but they are two 780tis. And no, I don't want to use the ones included with the motherboard since I like the hard ones, as this is a $6.5K PC and looks DO matter a lot to me.
 
As long as it reaches, that's great, use it. You don't need to come here asking questions and then get all stupid when somebody gives you an honest answer. You asked if it was too short. I said use the one that comes with the board as it will be the correct length. If the one you have is long enough and you like it better, use it. It will be fine.

Excuse me, but my question was pretty much if it would fit. I have found out it does, so thank you for your participation.

I know that this is over 8 months old, but others may need to know the answer that was never answered.

I have a gtx 680 4 gig in the top slot. Then you SKIP the tiny slot and the NEXT large slot (PCiE) down gets
the next card. I need a joiner for my two water cooling GPU blocks and I needed to know
the space. ON my two cards, in the slots from top of back plate to top of back plate is 2 1/4" total.
