Hi, I bought an additional GTX 1080TI for my configuration today.

 

I have this SLI bridge included  with my motherboard:

 

9-C236100-750-A-4-F9-C-8-E52-AE8-D6-C359

 

Can you tell me, i need another one like this for 2way SLI ?

Or do I need buy a new one like that ?

That’s a high bandwidth bridge. Recommended for the 10 series and high resolution.

You can do what ever you want. One bridge. Two bridges or a high bandwidth bridge. 

 

Originally they designed them to support 3/4 way sli. Thus you need two fingers.

 

If you think your system can achieve the supposed 2-3 frame increase from two bridges or a high bandwidth bridge, get one.

No I didn’t. I don’t have a cpu strong enough to handle to cards in any test. 

 

But plenty of youtubers have. The page you’re on for instance, had a video covering this.
