Posted January 17, 2015 Hello, I have a question that after all my googling there doesn't seem to be a straight answer about. When installing two graphics cards on a completely new build, should I install one and then install windows, drivers etc and THEN install the other graphics card. or should I install both graphics cards with the SLI bridge right off the bat and then install windows, drivers etc? This might be a silly question, but it's been bugging me for a little while now.

Posted January 17, 2015 It shouldn't matter, but installing the gpus first wouldn't hurt. Woo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
