MSI gaming 1080 and a MSI gaming X 1080 difference

[Kyle Sylvester]

Can these two be used in sli I have a regular version and cannot find another one 

[jones177]

Yes.

I have used an EVGA SC with a Gigabyte Extreme before.

This is what they did in Heaven bench.

 

In SLI they will run at the speed of the slowest card.

I have never heard of a 1080 without 8gbs.

It’s the same gpu and same size ram. Shouldn’t by any issue. Not like the 970 fiasco.

Any of them will work but on the settings of the slower one.

 

You could overclock them both to an equal amount but just for the sake of stability (I mean try this but if things dont work so well after attempting it) use the defaults of the slower card and manually mirror those defaults to the faster one.
