So a long story short i had a 970 Asus Strix my brother a EVGA FTW 780, so his card **** itself after 18 months and they gave him a 970 SSC which at the time was a big deal and "lucky". We have been waiting all this time for the new series and spent another 3 months waiting for the Gigabyte 1080 Xtreme for highest clocks.
In very short EVGA did something to a few of 970s making them incompatible to SLI with other cards entirely with no word of this or knowing, now that i dig deep enough i can see this is a common problem (only to EVGA SSC and a few others) but i went with the whole notion of any card can SLI within the same series as each other eg. 970
Is there anything i might be able to try and do? Like different bios or something.
Im sitting here in luxury with my 1080 while my brother is saddened with two 970s that are useless.
Thanks!
