Hey everyone,

I've been running my setup of an ASUS P8Z77-VLX (1155 socket, ATX) with an i5-3570k and a single EVGA GTX 760 for about a year now but needed more gaming capability. I decided to get another EVGA GTX 760 on ebay and was excited to get started with SLI. Only after I recieved the item did I realise that my mobo doesn't support SLI (even though it came with a 2 way bridge?!) so essentially I'm looking for a mobo to support SLI, around the £100 mark.

Thanks in advance for the help,
John

that's about the last of the sil supported board left .. better get it wile you can it seems if you plan to reuse all your parts off the board you got now ??

I just don't understand how it going to do that ''Quad SLI'' with only 2 pcie-x16 slots ?? the rest of the pcie are not going to do it NVidia requires each slot to run at least 8x ??

so a 2 card sli will be fine

the reason your boad has the bridge is that it supports amd x-fire amd requires one slot at x16 and one slot at x4
