What Motherboard are you using? Brand and Model.

Any SLI Bridge will be fine for running two cards simultaneously.

Thelps :

do u kno how far apart the pci lanes are

Thelps · Oct 8, 2014

sto_ :

I need to know what Motherboard you are using.

You may need a Spaced SLI Bridge to cover that gap.

Great motherboard. PCI Slots are further apart then the hairline you tend to see, spacing shouldn't be of an issue.

unknownofprob :

this is the one im getting http://www.frozencpu.com/products/16964/ex-blc-1213/EK_FC_Bridge_Dual_Parallel_CSQ_-_SLI_Connection_-_Plexi_EK-FC_Bridge_DUAL_Parallel_CSQ_Plexi.html?tl=g57c645s2062

For use with motherboards with PCIe x16 slots 40.6mm (1.6") apart!

unknownofprob :

cuz my concern is that im going to use gtx 670 waterblocks on gtx 970 videocards and i wanted to kno if thatl work on that mobo dont want to spend the money if it wont work once u open ek products u cant return them

unknownofprob · Oct 8, 2014

I see, you going for a full custom loop?

sto_ · Oct 8, 2014

unknownofprob :

yeah i already have one 1 360 rad and a 240 rad i have my cpu and gpu currently watercooled but i ihave a gtx 660 and its not keeping up with newer games i have to clock it at 1140 mhz im afraid imma blow it up and im still getting tearing why playing with all the bells and whistles and i have it on surround to so thats what im going for wit the new cards

unknownofprob · Oct 8, 2014

It won't blow up, it might just get to the point of it being so hot, it shuts down before physical damage is obtained.

sto_ · Oct 8, 2014

unknownofprob :

well it dosent get hotter than 34C and my cpu at full load stays under 55c

unknownofprob · Oct 8, 2014

that is ice cold for max temp!

sto_ · Oct 8, 2014

unknownofprob :

ive had this gpu at 110% power and +250 gpu offset and leaving mem alone while playing shadow of mordor on ultra in surround and gets to 34c but i can see tearing at the very top while moving the camera its 28.9c right now

May I ask how your Graphics card runs so cold?

sto_ · Oct 8, 2014

unknownofprob :

i use mx4 tim and my loop is pump res in one to 240 rad then to gpu then to 360 rad then to cpu back to pump res

unknownofprob · Oct 8, 2014

I see, that's a solid water loop setup. Could you link up an image of this dual rad setup?

sto_ · Oct 8, 2014

unknownofprob :

yeah no problem http://tinypic.com/r/6odjlj/8

sto_ · Oct 8, 2014

unknownofprob :

unknownofprob · Oct 8, 2014

yes, for sure. Very nice setup!

sto_ · Oct 8, 2014

unknownofprob :
