WHY would I want to Eject my Graphics card?

It is a new safety feature by NVidia !!!
NVidia cards have been known to catch fire in the past and it is always nice to have a quick eject option if the worst happens.
NVidia will of course be charging an extra £20 per card to bring you this essential life saving option.
The last few NVidia drivers have been a total nightmare for me if I use SLI. Sometimes it can take 6 or 7 reboots to get to the desktop.
Even enabling or dis enabling SLI can take absolutely ages and is a total joke.

Not having a problem with dual card SLI and Windows 10. PC doesn't even need a reboot after updating the drivers.
It always disables SLI when you update, but it's simple to re-enable.
Maybe it's an issue with 4x GPU's?
I think it is a 4 GPU thing.
NVidia have had problems with this in the past, some of the drivers on a pair of GTX 690s could be a nightmare.
Now that you say it, I have been having a few reboots and I had a sneaking suspicion it was graphics card related. So not just a 4 GPU thing. It normally happens when I do a cold boot (power on) and it suddenly reaches the point of loading the OS and then it restarts. When do your restarts happen?
It is only when I restart the PC, then it can take several attempts to get to load the OS and get to the desktop.
