GTX 970 sli issue

[Durrendal]

Hey guys so here is the problem, when launching my sli i get weird ghosting/ orange mist whilst playing ( eg gw2) im on windows 10 64 bits and have a 750 watts psu. Could the lack of power supply be the problem? I also suspect that windows 10 might be an issue with their sli drivers. On another note the manual recommends my second card in the last slot, however this makes it push slightly the usb3 conector to the motherboard, i'd like to move the card but i'm afraid that it will mean both my cards run in x8 instead of x16/x8.

 

5820k OC 4.2

x99 platform

g1 gaming and reference 970 in sli

4hhds, 1ssd 8 fans

750watts psu

 

thanks a lot for your help

x16 and x8 makes 0 difference.  No GPU even fully saturates x8.  x8/x8 is all you need for SLI, and it's the minimum requirement for SLI anyway.

My 970's did a similar thing. Windows 10 was my problem. I downgraded to Windows7 and everything is fine
