Got my cards in SLI now and see that Gigabyte cards take 3 slots so there's only one way they fit, and no more PCI-E for me in this system. No problem though, because at 4k with AA on and 60fps I am floored. The latest Tomb Raider game looks like a rendered movie. In the underground tombs the ice and rock look so amazing and real I'm just in awe. I have never seen graphics like this in my life. These cards are just insane! lol. My last card is a Radeon 6970 and I just was not prepared for how far these chips have come.
I am still getting game crashes after a couple of hours, requiring a reboot to continue, but I will track that down eventually.
AMAZING! Nvidia has blown my mind.
Observations, these things COOK though. Card 1 obviously runs much hotter than card 2 so I have my better ASIC in that slot (75.9%). Still runs 10 degrees hotter. In game it keeps at about 83C, so I guess that's normal? That's what is listed in the driver, and I think is the fan threshold.
