gtx 770 sli

[mikeymaiden]

I recently bought a used evga gtx 770 FTW 4gb card for 60 bucks. I runs great and all but i would like a little more performance. I would like to buy another ftw 770 but i cant seem to find any for a reasonable price. Although i can find cheap evga 770 sc 2gb. Would i be able to sli them even though one gpu has more gb than the other?? thanks

No, you need to have the same VRAM for SLI to work.

 

I would honestly just get a better GPU. What kind of power supply and CPU do you have?

well, for this config the 4GB model would just nerf itself to 2GB

 

but still, pretty lame and the SLI practice for cards this old is just for fun anyway.

No, sli on cards that are not perfectly identical is not officially supported so the driver won't allow you to use them together.

I'd look at getting onto a better platform, such as Ryzen, before worrying too much about upgrading your GPU.
