HB SLI Bridge and 980Ti

[Codyman125]

Simple question, I'm about to go 2x 980Ti SLI and like the look of the new HB Bridges more than the old ones. (Specifically the EVGA Ones). I've seen a dozen videos about using non-HB on pascal, but none on HB with Maxwell. Thoughts? Will it work?

If i had to wager a completely random and uneducated guess I would have to say.... maybe?

That's about my thoughts too. I can't imagine there'd be performance to gain, but then, when has building a custom pc ever been 100% function over form, lol

Product description says it will work on all sli enabled cards.

Will you see a benefit from the added bandwidth?  My guess is it wouldn't be a noticeable jump, but it's definitely something somebody should try with two 980 ti's.

JayzTwoCents used one on his 980ti's.

Yes it works. Some games do allow the 980 Ti to benefit from it according to Hardware Unboxed.
