Question: what occurs in 3D when one SLI card is not getting enough power (what happens on the screen)? Would I get artifacts, crashing, an error or all of the above?
After being able to run for a couple of hours, I'm now seeing major artifacting (screen-size black triangles/streaks). I'm wondering if maybe it's due to one of my PSU's 12v rails not running. I'm also getting crackling from my PSU, but I was getting that when my sys was running correctly too and have heard it's common with TT models.
