8800 GTX SLI Bridge

[Olly]

Just bought 2 GTX's for SLI, I got 2 bridges with my XFX mobo.....which one do I use?

Do I use the single bridge, or the wider bridge for all 3 cards (bearing in mind im only using 2 cards)

Just checking because on the GTX's there are 2 sli connectors on each card

Use the singe narrow bridge. Not 100% sure which connector on the GTX you need to put the bridge on tho

You only need to use one single bridge for normal SLi, but some websites show them using two, which isnt necessary.

What scores you getting?

With a stock GTX and a stock Q6600 i got 12k. Id imagine the Q6600 @ stock will bottleneck a pair of GTX's
