Would i be able to run 2-way SLi on this board with 2x GTX 760s?

 

http://www.pbtech.co.nz/index.php?z=p&p=MBDASR1805&name=ASRock-B85M-PRO4-Socket-1150-Intel-B85-ChipsetmATX

I can see 1xPCie 3.0 (X16) and the other one is only 4x.

But in 2 way Sli can the 4x bridge boost up to 8x between the two cards?

Will this also benefit me?

Thanks guys in advance :)

No. the second slot runs only PCIe 4x mode. SLI requires at least 8x

No. With SLI, you need a minimum of PCIe x8. Anything lower and you will not be able to use SLI. Also, the x4 is physically wired for x4. It cannot become an x8 slot.

It seems the board doesn't support SLI, that's odd.

According to the specs, no it's not odd.

Are you looking at whether it supports SLI?
