I'm endeavoring to put together only my second rig ever, and it's turning into an ambitious, not to mention expensive project.That being said, my PC building knowledge is at best intermediate, and probably less than that in some aspects.
I want to use the MSI X99A Godlike motherboard with 2x EVGA Hydro Copper 980 Ti's in SLI. Once I made this decision I found out about the EVGA Pro SLI Bridges that come in 4 different lengths. I definitely want to use one of these but even after a few hours of research I'm still lost as to which length and type I need for this setup.
I'm pretty sure I want to run the cards in the PCIe-1 and PCIe-4 slots to get an optimal 16x0x0x16x0 configuration.
Is this correct thinking?? If so, I'm pretty sure that's a big stretch between the two cards but how do I know which length SLI bridge to get?
Any and all advice or help here is much appreciated!! Thanks!
