Which SLI bridge do I need?

[jjar35]

Hey all just a quick question, before I make a purchase and get the wrong one. I have 2 980ti's in SLI with 2 slots in between. Which of these do I need to get?

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00X5X3LQY/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=37H5L12SX04KS&coliid=IZ9GDZS9M1JEC&psc=1

I am assuming the 2 way long correct? 

 

Also does anyone know if the EVGA logo will light up if I am using ASUS cards? or does it not matter?

 

Thanks all, Jar

Depends on what you mean with "2 slots in between".

2 slots between the graphics cards or 2 slots between the PCI-e connectors?

Which motherboard do you use?

If you want to use the 1. and 2. red PCI-e slot, you'll need the short bridge.

If you want to use the 1. red and the black PCI-e slot, you'll need the long bridge.

If you want to use the 1. and 3. red, you'll need the 3-way bridge.

Which 2 slots are you using?

I am using the 1st PCIe and the 3rd PCIe

does the 3-way work if you only have 2 cards?

Yes it does.

Btw.: The third PCI-e slot is the black one. You'll need the long two-way SLI bridge for that.

excuse me I spoke incorrectly, I am using the 1st and 4th slots.

Yup, then you need the 3-way. I just made this little picture here, just so it's 100% clear
