[gregcky]

Since my 5850 is being RMA'd, i want to SLI two 8600 GTs but i am not sure what patch i'll need to accomplish this. After a quick search on the forums i could not find much, so if anyone can point me in the right direction, i would be eternally grateful!

GA-890FXA-UD5
(2) 8600GT

Thanks much!

if this is your motherboard, it doesn't seem to support nvidia sli, only amd cfx.
however, you could a single nvidia card without any problem.

Only the 900 series chipset or the [crappy] nVidia chipset MoBos by AMD support SLI.
The only way to get SLI working on that board-from what I have read-is by modifying nVidia drivers, and that isn't always successful.
