Chances are slim to none that you will get any performance benefit with a HB bridge over your 2nd Gen LED bridge at at Ultrawide 2k. NVIDIA made a slide showing a slight performance deficit with a HB bridge vs normal SLI bridge at 11k lol.
It would seem that some games do show a decent bump with the HB bridge.
Very interesting. Weird that some games see no performance change while other get a huge boost. Also interesting that the games that saw the biggest boost were games that had poor scaling which probably makes sense.
Finally got around to pics of the new card.

I have got one of those bridges coming and will test it for myself.
I suspect if you have got a good system with plenty of PCI-E lanes available these bridges will do nothing at all.
Two things I can use to really test the bridge are Firestike @8k and also Mordor @8k as these are easy to do and should really tax the system.
Yeah that's what I mean.
When you remove the protective plastic, is there still remaining plastic underneath those screws? Some people were complaining over on Reddit/EVGA forums that they had to remove the screws to remove it all.
I understand EVGA have since fixed the issue though, must've been on some of the earlier production ones.
Nice pre-ordered one of the 4 way bridges. I do see a bit of a gap between the old school Ribbon one and the EVGA / Nvidia LED one, be curious to see how this one goes.
Separately, got a third card now, but cannot seem to get firestrike to correctly recognise it? I was under the impression bench marking would work fine in 3/4 way SLI? Have you managed to get anything more then 2 way working by any chance?
Hi guys
I just got the Asus Founder Edition and am wondering: can I turn off the green "GeForce gtx" display on the top of the card? Or turn it down or something?
It's really invasive as I have the pc close to my desk and while other LEDs are flashing on the mobo, nothing is as bright or as intrusive as the 1080 gpu.
Should apply to the 1080 as well.

None of the synthetic benches I have tried (Firestrike and Heaven) work with 4 cards they just use 2 cards. Hopefully NVidia will get it sorted soon.
Nice work and added to the user videos.
Looking at those videos I think 3440x1440 or 2560x1440 is definitely the "sweet spot" for the 1080, I am not sure that even the 1080Ti will be good enough to get good FPS and good settings at 4k. The FPS and settings at 2560x1440 or 3440x1440 on the 1080 are good, but then 4k is about 70% more pixels than 3440x1440 or more than 2x 2560x1440.
