geezer_wheelz Posted December 6, 2007 Posted December 6, 2007 Good day I have spent hours trying to find out what the proper bus speed should be when running SLI I have an LP UT nF4 Ultra D board that I did the SLI mod to, 2 - XFX 256mb 7600GT video cards, & the SLI bridge installed. I installed 163.75 ForceWare drivers from nVidia's site. I have changed the jumpers to the correct position on the motherboard, all at 2&3 pins. After reinstalling Windows it is all working, both cards are being seen and windows said that SLI is properly setup, but when I went to the nVidia control panel it said that the SLI bus was 8X. I thought that it was supposed to be 16x Am I wrong? Thanks for your time and knowledge Chad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bldegle2 Posted December 6, 2007 Posted December 6, 2007 top PCI-E slot, one card only>16x bottom PCI-E slot, one card only>2x or 8x, depending on jumper both slots used in SLI, both will be 8x each even @8x, doubtful the PCI-E bus comes close to saturation..... laterzzzz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
