Could it possibly work?

Ik that sli is dead with modern cards. But could u technically go back a card like the 1080ti which is fairly cheap and get 2 in sli and be able to play modern games at high settings? I'm just curious that's all.

it would be the same as playing with one 1080 ti

you could PLAY the games but the other gpu wouldn't be able to be utilised anyways

I have one 1080ti, and I'm not sure about the most recent games

 

but Death Stranding ran pretty smoothly (note: I did ran it on low settings for comparison reasons)

 

but if you want I can load it and crank up the settings

To further clarify: a game REQUIRES compatibility with SLI to be built into during development for SLI to work.

 

No recent games in the last 5 or so years have had any SLI functionality, so even if you had a working setup, you’d still only utilize one gpu on any modern game.
