Hey all,
This is going to seem like a noob question, but here it goes. I am interested in getting the MSI Z97S SLI Krait Edition. I want this over other boards mainly because of the great color scheme. Here is a link to the motherboard:
Motherboard Link
My question is this: I only plan on using one graphics card with this. The motherboard has the word "SLI" in its name. Does this mean you have to use two graphics cards with this motherboard? Does this motherboard have a penalty in performance for just using one graphics card like I plan on doing? I will never use SLI, and I only ever plan on using one graphics card with this motherboard. The thing that worries me is that since this motherboard has "SLI" in its name, it makes it seem like it was made specifically for only SLI use.
Thanks for the help.
