I have 3 pci express slots 2x 3.0 ports and 1x 2.0 i have both card on the top 3.0 and middle 3.0 pci express but i get no image from my monitor any tips?

Check your cable to see if its secure in the input of your card.

Can you get into bios at all?

If you cant, remove the second card and get into the bios, and select pcie as your primary display in the advanced section.
Then try again.

alright i just switched cards my main one was on the bottom and i moved it to the top and now it works do i need to install special sli drivers?

 

[monsta]

Download the latest drivers from Nvidia and do a clean install by choosing custom install and clicking the check box for clean install.

 

[tupacalypse]

should i download the beta drivers (i had those before)

 

[monsta]

Yup they are good!

 

[tupacalypse]

sweet well not yet i realized i didnt have the sli bridge on (fail ) lol

 

[monsta]

I was gonna say dont forget the SLI bridge.lol

Dont forget to enable SLI in the Nvidia control panel too.

 

[tupacalypse]

should i use the X4 mode or X1(currently on x1) for my 3.0

 

[monsta]

Don't use the third slot , use the first and second.

When using the first and second it will become 8x8

The third slot is x4, dont bother with that one.

Did you put the cable into the top card or the second card?

Overclocking is difficult to explain and some reading and experience really helps.

Best to check out this guide on how to overclock
