Hello!

Is it possible to "practically" use SLI with two GTX 1060s? Something like putting two on a SLI capable motherboard and using them for CUDA. I'm wondering because some reviewers claim to be able to SLI two GTX 1060s, but nVidia's website says that the GTX 1060 is not SLI capable. In short, I'm just looking for a bit of clarification. :)

Thanks in Advance!

for software that take advantage of CUDA? yes some software able to take advantage of multi gpu setup but they did not work the same way on how they are implemented in games. you don't even need SLI certified motherboard for it. so in theory such software does not support "SLI" but they might be able to use more than one gpu if more gpu are present in the system. the term "SLI" are more associated with gaming application.
