EVGA Pro SLI Bridge 3-Way Graphics Cards (100-3W-0031-LR)

After building my new gaming rig, I decided to spend even more money and go SLI with my graphics cards. After installing some internal NZXT Hue lighting and some flashy showcase lights, the crude-looking ASUS SLI bridge really put a damper on the nicely organized and lit organs of the computer. The EVGA Pro SLI bridge really adds that flare to a usually dark and lonely part of the case. The EVGA light is calmly lit and gives off a great signal of "Hey, I'm in SLI and I look cooler than you!". The bridge construction is well-made and sits snugly within the video card connections. The EVGA logo lights up when the cards are set to SLI mode within the NVIDIA control panel. When the cards are not in SLI, the logo dims to let you know you are no longer in SLI. This provided me with a great opportunity to trouble shoot video card SLI problems when one of the cards was not properly connecting to SLI (it was the card's fault). At a price of $30, many average gamers won't see this bridge as a great investment in their frames per second or mouse DPI. However, the $30 price mark gives the average or pro gamer the ability to make their SLI status known; especially if your case is built for showing off and showcasing. My EVGA cards actually look 'complete' rather than 'just SLI'd' with this bridge. It gives the internal video cards a look of professionalism while maintaining modesty. If you have $30 to spend, this is a definite go if you have a case that shows off the internals.

The EVGA SLI bridge works great with my gtx 670 sli. Feels more secure and stronger on my graphics card than the one that camewith my motherboard. Granted I used the one from my motherboard for a year, but then the connectors got loose and actually itstarted to come off just a little by itself, which was enough to make my graphics flicker all over when playing games. The sli bridgethat came with my motherboard was one of those flexible bridges. Also remember that if you use any graphic cards except for Titan, gtx 780, and 770then the bridge will not illuminate the logo which is disappointing. But the product itself is very solid and it works which to me is moreimportant.Pros:- Built more robust than the flexible connector that comes with your motherboard- The logo will illuminate with select gtx 700 series cards (780,770) and Titan, giving it that extra bling in your case.- The chrome in the middle was a nice touch to the otherwise classy looking exterior.- The packaging was actually very nice with soft touch foam that protected the product very well during shipping.Cons:- The logo doesn't illuminate with any other series cards.- Price is slightly expensive than what it should be, but that's my opinion.

I like it, it looks great. In reality I bought it for the lights. Don't get me wrong it's by far the best looking SLI bridge on the market. The thing is at the cost it's about 20x more expensive than the competition.I have two GTX 770 4GB Classifieds, and they are listed as not functional to light up the bridge. I have to say it took me a lot of digging to find that out. What I found even more impressive was that those cards are at the very top end of price and performance and it surprised me that they were specifically singled out not to work.I gave three stars as the majority of the info about the bridge would have you believe that it would be functional on all 700 series cards. It works as an SLI bridge and for that respect I gave it 3 stars.

Great construction and adds some flash to you pc. I didn't do enough research when buying this 3 way bridge. I have two 770;s so I thought I would be good. However my motherboard has the x16 then two x1 slots then the next x16/x8 slot. From what I have seen it is a pretty common set up on todays motherboards. So I will need to get the 4 way to get this to work for my set up. I have a gigabyte z87x-ud5h

Works great on my Gigabyte Z97X Gaming G1 motherboard with SLI GTX 670s, as the spacing is identical to the SLI bridge supplied by Gigabyte.Of course it won't light up with pre-700 series cards, but it looks a lot better than the Gigabyte brown PCB version or the flexible SLI bridge. I don't have a 3rd card in the middle as my ASUS Direct Cu II 670s are so wide the middle card would overheat unless I went with watercooling.Bottom line: a great product, and I'm surprised there aren't a lot more like it on the market yet. [EDIT: It looks like ASUS has just come out with their own line of SLI bridges with a red ROG logo that lights up. Not available at time of writing (Jan 15 2015) but should be soon.]

I just received this, and unfortunately, it won't work because it's too long and there is no way to adjust it. My 2 cards are in the first and second slots, right next to each other. For this to work, the cards would have to be moved 2 slots apart. I don't have that option, because the card is too long to fit in the 3rd slot, the front of the fan enclosure hits some cables from the board. Bummer, I love the way it looks, but will have to return for one of the cheap-o flexible cables.

Warning to anyone wanting to but the 3way sli bridge for 4k gaming. IT DOES NOT WORK RIGHT!I read on forums about the issue but didnt think much of it. I keept trying to get my games to run right on my new rig. 4770k. Dual EVGA 780ti SC.it all SEAMS to work correctly. But the games would keep crashing. Specially during a cut scene to gameplay transition. I coudnt even get past the Watch Dogs intro scene.I switched to the SLI bridge that came with the MoBo and now every game works perfectly. After 3 weeks of scratching my head.With that said, I will absolutely buy this bridge again once the issue is fixed. It looks amazing if you have a window on Your case.
