Perhaps you should consider expanding the front page with Tri-SLI info. If you are interested, I can provide pro's and con's. I recently tested a set of 9800gtx in tri-sli on the EVGA 790i Ultra on one of my other systems.

Funky as heck to set up and get working smoothly.

Yes. Though you will only see one slider bar for the core and one slider bar for the memory, any alterations you make to the clock speeds of core and memory will be applied to both cards simultaneously.
When i try to Overclock in riviatuner i get only one slider and its supposed to count for both cards. But then i look in GPUZ and the two cards have diffrent speeds?
Anyone know why

I'm going to expanding on this thread over the next day or so to include info on Tri-SLi, Quad-SLi, and hybrid SLi. I'll also include information on how to monitor clocks for nVidia cards as well as how to correctly install a second, or third, card in SLi. Many members report problems if they haven't uninstalled their Forceware drivers and then reinstalled them after adding a second card.

Make sure you have the latest version of GPU-Z as some versions report the clocks incorrectly for the second graphics card.

I'm still having issues getting my first card to display "dual view". My "set multiple displays" option disappears everytime I enable SLi.

I've installed 180.44 three times. DCpro each time. The last time I uninstalled all nVidia drivers, DCpro, and still no "set multiple displays" with SLi enabled.

I can however re-enable the display on my 8800Ultra with Windows display properties. NV control panel doesn't see it.




BTW, you should update x58 boards as non-nForce board that run SLi on page one.
I'm still yet to try it without the Ultra in between the 9600s.

EDIT: I decided to give it a try in Vista. Works fine in Vista. Seems to be an XP bug. Hopefully, they will get it in next set of drivers.

No. Both cards that are to be run in SLi must have matching GPU’s. For example, a 8800GTX cannot be paired with a 8800GTS. Likewise, a GeForce 6600GT must be paired with another 6600GT.
Is it possible to SLI: a 192 core GTX260 and a 216 core GTX260?

I don't think so. I know the 9800GTX and the 9800GTX+ can be ran together, but I haven't seen anything advertising this for the core 216.
