SLI bridge spacing - which size bridge? ASUS Rampage III Formula board

JakeAlmighty · Jun 30, 2016

hello,

I'm buying one of the fancy EVGA SLI bridges for use on my ASUS Rampage III Formula board - stock picture of the board is attached below.

I am supposed to use pcie slots 1 and 3 for x16/x16. (the top and bottom red full slots)

The spacing listed for the bridges is as follow:

the newer HB bridges - http://s31.postimg.org/dmm16s8zf/screenshot_129.png

thanks for any help. I'm not sure which size bridge I need and I'm unsure what the correct method of measuring between slots is on the board itself.

thanks!

In your case you have to use 80mm SLI bridge.

The SLI bridge will connect directly above where the actual card slot is situated. Use a ruler to measure between the 2 PCIe slots you will be using.
