SLI

So, I have 2 gtx 1070s in Sli, I heard there is a program that would allow me to use them both to where i can play games on both of them at the same time. Lol that's confusing. I heard there is a program where I can play fortnite with my roommate off of one pc and two monitors both of us on 2...

I have an alienware 18 with dual gtx 880m's in sli and am interested in upgrading to gtx 980m's. I've had trouble finding any info, forum threads, or videos of people making this upgrade. There's no shortage of people upgrading from earlier gpu's to the 880s or upgrading from 970s to 980s, but...

The machine shows some wear and tear but every works fine except I need to clean out the heat sinks. I will occasionally run X Plane 11, FSX, Visual Studio and...

I'm looking at getting a 4k laptop for gaming, school and photo and video editing. I don't know which one to choose. Portability isn't too much of a concern nor price. I play a lot of BF1, BF4, GTA 5, Forza 3, Star Wars Battlefront and some other Indie games if that helps any. I'm also ok with...

I have 4 550 Ti(I know they're old, we cant afford new graphics cards, nor can our case fit a modern graphics card that has Aura.) and I'm wondering if dual SLI would be VR ready.

Hi, My laptop is experiencing fps drop every one or two minutes when the sli is on. When I turn sli off, everything runs smoothly but I get less performance as you might imagine :(. I re-pasted and gave it a cooling pad, but they all failed to solve it. I also tried ThrottleStop to top the BD...

I recently had issues with my laptop getting an intermittent BSOD due to an outdated nvidia driver. After updating I have no option to enable SLI. I previously had a tray icon which could enable SLI. In the nvidia control panel it says SLI is disabled. I played a game which confirmed that the...

So basically SLI does not like to work with Red Orchestra 2/Rising Storm. With any other game, both GPU's in my set up both run at around 55%/45% (GPU1 and GPU2 respectively) load and approximately 75-85 degrees C. But for Red Orchestra 2, this is what I get...

Hi guys, I am looking for a non 4k pure gaming laptop(I travel a lot so a desktop is ruled out)and I had a few doubts : 1) Should I go for 120 hz 1080p or qhd 60 hz (both gsync)? 2) Is it an overkill to go for 1070 sli for 1080p? The minimum 120 hz rate...

Hey all, I'm looking to buy a laptop at the end of the year sometime. I'm looking for something that will handle future games, VR and 3ds Max, cryengine 5, and other design software. I am a heavy gamer, I'm looking at shelling out money for a 1080 SLI setup, but I'm not sure whether it's worth...

Reading the Unity Release Schedule, it appears that VR Single Pass Rendering will make it into the next release, but VR SLI will not. Doesn't Single Pass rendering make the benefits that VR SLI would provide redundant?

Title says all. I've been looking at gaming laptops and torn between the two. Not because some games don't work in SLiu, but price difference. One is $2400 and the 970M SLI is $2700. Is the SLI worth it?

Hello i am purchasing a gaming laptop andi have the option to either get 980m sli or a 980 put into it. The monitor only refreshes at 60hz would it be worth getting the sli or just go for the 980?

Just today I was trying disable sli on my computer' but when I did try to disable it. It basically said Norton security is blocking from disabling sli. If I try to press end task on Norton security it say's it might cause system instability. What do you recommend me doing?

I have a laptop with gt750m sli. Sometimes when i turn on my laptop i have fps issues. I've checked on msi afterburner that my gpu1 has much lower core & memory clock than gpu2. I can fix it by simply restarting. It happens on certain sessions of windows so its not depend on usage & heat or any...

So, I'm trying to narrow down my budget for my new PC, and I had a question about SLI VRAM. I have an Aorus X7 Pro Gaming Laptop, and it has 2x GTX 970M, each of which is 3GB, in SLI configuration. Some people have told me SLI VRAM stacks up, essentially becoming more than each individual card...

I'm building a skylake gaming computer, and my budget is somewhat limited. As it stands, I can either buy one 960 now and then another in a few weeks to a month and SLI them, or wait a month or more to be able to buy a 970/390. At the moment I'm very much leaning towards the SLI setup, as I wont...

Hi everyone I recently obtained an alienware 18 (2013) with no gpu cards in it with a 4940mx processor and 24gb of ram. My question is if I buy the 980m sli upgrade kit from Eurocom will it be compatible with my laptop? and would the 880m sli heatsinks work for the 980m sli?

Any ideas? Thanks. http://www.asus.com/Notebooks/ASUS_ROG_G751JL/

I have the Lenovo y500 laptop that has two GT 650m in SLI. I have an old dell monitor plugged up to the VGA port. I was going to do some gaming today and I got in and realized that my SLI wasn't turned on so I opened the Nvidia control panel and turned it on. As soon as I activated it then my...

Hello everyone, I am in the market for a new laptop for college and have narrowed the search down to two models. I am torn between two machines mainly because of the graphics setups offered on each. In the MSI model it has a newer card but less VRAM, and in the Aorus model it has Dual GPUs and...

Unfortunately I don't have the liberty to build or use a desktop so I'm considering a new laptop. I like the Sager NP9377 but unfortunately it uses a 60Hz display at 1080p. Is 980M SLI worth it at all or should I stick to a single 980M and put the rest of the budget somewhere else? Here's what I...

Should I get a Gtx 970 SLI setup or a single Gtx 980 ti setup for my build?

I recently discovered I somehow managed to kill one of my GeForce 870m's in my SLI laptop. How difficult is it to replace the dead gpu? Is it soldered to the mb, or simply a matter of getting the old one out/dropping new on in?

Are there any laptops with 960m sli or 970m under 1000$?

Can play records and slightly hear the music. Do we need separate speakers?

So I just recently bought a GT750M SLI, for my Lenovo y510p, and I find that it is has the DDR3 memory type.... Now my y510p has the GDDR5 memory type. With that in mind, my question is: will this be a problem as I need a GDDR5 SLI for me to be able to run the SLI setup? or can i run this...

I'm considering a Eurocom X8 with 980M SLI and the sales rep I'm talking to says I'll need a 660W AC adapter instead of a 330W adapter for 980M SLI. I understand that SLI consumes extra power but both the MSI GT80 and the Sager NP9377 from xoticpc.com come with 330W AC adapters, without an...

So I'm the sad owner of a Dell M17xR3 that hasn't had a driver update since 2010. I was managing with this for years and yesterday decided to use a modded nvidia driver (vs. 340.52) on my 280Ms. Now, SLI is disabled and I can't seem to enable it....system is defaulting the to the integrated...

So I've been saving up and looking at gaming laptops and wanted to know is it worth the money to get a gtx 980m sli (ie. A msi gt80 titan) or should I just get one with a single graphics card? Will the single card last as long as a duel?

Hello, Does anyone know if there is a laptop out there that has a 4K display with 980M SLI graphics card? It seems no matter which brand I look at, they only seem to have either 4K with 970M, or 1080p with 980M SLI, even the MSI GT80 has only a 1080p screen.

Hello and thanks for clicking on this post. I have a question regarding to the MSI Z97s Sli Krait Edition motherboard. My question is whether this board has onboard Wi-Fi instead of buying a separate Wi-Fi card. Thanks in advance

I am trying to figure out what laptop I want to get... I need inputs - Absolutely must have the ability for two Maxwell GPUs. One 970m or 980m to start, then add on another later. - I really want a 120hz screen - I really want an upgradable CPU - I don't really care what size the laptop is, but...
