New to SLI

Go to solution Solved by Blackie Sheen,

It is not "true" sli comaptible. It is some ghetto sli that only works on windows vista for some bloody reason. So, if you can only afford and will only be able to afford a 750ti fr instance just buy that until you can replace it with something better

so im here today because i have an asus M3n72-D is sli compatible i want to bye two realy cheap gpus to see if sli is right 4 me any suggestions?

The only times SLI/CF is worth it is when you've already got the top end video card but still want more performance.

 

Or you want to win a virtual dick waving contest at the benchmarking website of your choice.

Why, just so you can tell your friends you have a SLI system? Get a single high-end card, less fiddling around with stupid settings when games don't play nice with it.

Save up for a better Gpu or ask your parents for money. Do chores m8. SLI 750Ti is one of the worst ideas I've ever heard. You would be better off with a single 960. Also your CPU is so old and weak it would bottleneck severely. Save up and get a completely new system.
