Msi and Evga 970 sli Not working

[Nolo70986]

I bought a Msi Gaming 4G but I cant seem to get it to work with a EVGA ACX SC 2.0+ I Have everything connected and I've tried DifferentSLIAuto but nothing seems to be working

 

Motherboard is P9x79 LE

 

In the Nvidia control panel its:

[  ] Maximize 3D performance

[  ]Span displays with Surround
[  ]Activate all displays
[x]Disable SLI

set it to maximize 3d performance

You have to select Maximize 3D performance = Enabling SLI.

Ok, you could try using DifferentSLIAuto, it's a program that basically helps you activate SLI between graphic cards from different manufacturers, it will use the VRAM of the lesser card, link here: https://github.com/EmberVulpix/DifferentSLIAuto/releases

Have you looked for a compatibility chart? Maybe those two cards are not compatible with each other, some manufacturers have a chart somewhere on their site, if not google it.

I'll go check

Use MSI afterburner to clock both GPUs at the same core clock. Make sure you haven't OC'd either of the cards and then give it another go. From experience, GPUs from different brands or different models are annoying to SLI. Basically you have to make both cards behave the same or it doesn't work.

So everything is identical on the cards from BIOS versions, VRAM frequencies, core clock, etc? 

 

I'm not sure then, sorry... You could try using DDU to remove the drivers and then reinstall?

Update both BIOS to the latest (should be identical), and then try again.
