Hi!

I recived my new SLI Bridge Today, and I plugged it in, it was very easy, but when I fired up the PC and went to the Nvidia Control Panel to setup SLI, the Maximize 3D Performance was still grey as it was before I put in the SLI Bridge..

I have this SLI Bridge:
https://www.komplett.dk/msi-2-way-sli-bridge-connector/...

And this GPU: https://www.komplett.dk/zotac-geforce-gtx-780ti-3gb-phy...

Sorry for it being in Danish...

I also have a 1000W PSU from Coolermaster
And the motherboard from this PC: http://www.hitech-gamer.com/en/Xtreme-Gamer-PC/GAMER-PC...

And also the CPU from that PC..

I'm sure I plugged in the SLI Bridge correctly, but It's kinda bend since my graphic cards are kinda close together, but not a whole lot.

HERES A PICTURE OF THE SETUP: http://gyazo.com/14bead5ec4fbb23a8ff23177ee4b63fa

AND ANOTHER ONE (SHOWS THE WHOLE PC): http://gyazo.com/507eba7754f46f1ca619180ce62a3353

AND A PICTURE OF MY NVIDIA CONTROL PANEL: http://gyazo.com/67313b6b44714671ffffe5ab0bd53444

Thanks a lot!

the link for the motherboard gives and error on the page and does not link to anything. what is the exact motherboard? without knowing what the MB is my guess is the second pci-e x16 slot is only running at 4x, Nvidia has to have at least 8x on both slots to run sli.

Edit:

Better yet can you give a full system spec of the system

CPU:
GPU:
MB:
RAM:
PSU:

Cool got it you have a MSI Z97-G45 Gaming motherboard.

So there are 3 PCI-e X16 slots one card 16,0,0 two cards 8,8,0 three 8,4,4 so no 3-way sli. It doenst look like there is anything plugged into the lower pci-e slot, which is good so the two slots should be running at 8x for both cards.

Have you tried swapping the card with each other to make sure they are both working? might be odd but have you tried moving the sli cable to the other slot on the cards as well?

Do you have Skype or Steam, or really any chatting thing we could use, because I might need some guidance, and it's overall more quick.

Hi again!

This is the link to the picture of my GPUz thing: http://gyazo.com/f711a75a312a409a0701a5461dc4362b

I can't seem to unplug my 1st graphics card (the one I recived with my computer), and I'm afraid of breaking anything, so I really don't wanna use any major force. I really don't know what to do, I'm so confused...
