If this is true its a bit pointless me going SLI after all then, seeing as more and more new games will be DX12?

Just picked up another TX. Evga SC with a backplate so im all ready for SLI again. Looking forward to cranking Mirrors edge and total war all the way up on my x34 monitor so I hope SLI works for both games

Just had a panic inducing thought...I don't think I have an SLI bridge! Oh man I hope I can find one
So after selling my 2 TX's, buying a 980 then buying 1 TX, then another TX again. I've now bought a 4K 40 inch Seiki monitor.
Loving 4K, I was worried the TX SLI wouldn't hack it. I was wrong
I'm glad I came back.
Sidenote: How much are the original Swifts going for on the MM? £350?
Whats the panel type being used in the Seiki Klunt.

It's a PVA. Just worked out where my swift is 108 ppi, this is 110ppi. It's a really nice panel. Great blacks no *noticeable motion blur etc. Still not sure which one to keep though

Motherboard box.
OCUK do a range of very nice SLI bridges.
Interestingly, they don't seem to sell the new 10xx SLI bridges.
Nope, my mate has gone sli 1080 and hasn't been able to find a bridge anywhere.

Got my second TX installed and Finished off the witcher DLC. Very smooth with Gsync on as well but I'm onto Mirrors edge next so that will be the real test I guess

99% usage on both cards and perfectly synced! Total war seems to work great as well

Update on my second TX.
SLI is a lot smoother for me than it was on 780/780ti and every game I've played so far has ran flawlessly. Gsync may be a big factor in this or maybe it isnt but it all looks good. Ran into the "Nvidia GPU has been removed" crash and error twice yesterday but it was with DSR enabled in the NCP and it hasnt happened again since Ive disabled it.
However...dat 1080 is in stock now! Part of me wants to part with both TX's and pick up a 1080 just because its new and we all like shiney dont we! I guess my main concern is I enjoy playing new games on day 1 and being part of the zeitgeist and all to often SLI isnt at its best until a while after release.

1080s may be the new kid on the block but your 2xTXs are a lot faster now.
I'd wait and see how the 1080ti and titans fare if I were you. (depending on cost!)
How much you get that second titan X for?
Thinking of getting one myself but cant gage whats a reasonable price to pay.

£420 for an EVGA superclocked with an EVGA backplate. £400-420 is a fair price and its what I would ask for mine should I sell
Hi. thanks for the information and congrats on the second tx
That is about what I wanted to pay for one as I could do with the 12gb for 3d work.
Most of them seem to be about £500 plus on ebay and I felt that was a little much.

Its that 12gb thats letting them hold good value IMO. Still a beast of a card really and 2 in SLI with that VRAM means they are chewing through everything with all the bells and whistles @3440x1440
