I just ordered the RoG swift and 2x Asus strix 970, and now I realize from unboxing videos that they dont come with power or SLI bridges. I recently moved to Japan and needless to say I didnt pack all my cables etc.

My motherboard is the RoG maximus VI hero, and my PSU is a thermaltake 1200w.

Does anyone know the best way to get a new sli bridge and the 8 pin power connections? Region specific info for Japan would me immensely helpful too. Thanks

ps also noticed the strix 970 only has 1 displayport connection, if i upgrade to surround in the future, will the hdmi/dvi connections be able to be adapted to displayport for the gsync monitor or did I make a massive mistake with these cards?

You can purchase an Asus RoG SLI bridge off of their own web store. (or buy one of Nvidia's custom LED SLI bridges off of their website) I would go ask Thermaltake's customer service or look on Amazon.jp for some 8-pin power connectors for your PSU.

As for your monitors, I don't think there is any cards out right now that can support a surround set up of 3 Swift's and still run over 60fps in order to even make use of G-Sync. (that's like what 7680x1440?)

You can split a displayport connection though and run two monitors off of one port so it's still possible.

Great answer, but about the PSU, are you saying these cables aren't standardized? The thermaltake site is garbage... and again, I'm in japan so its hard to call them if need be.
