Ok, am no noob but I am to SLI, 1st time im gona give it a go so just got some questions to make sure im not gona destroy anything...
1. The two cards I have are both XFX 7800gtx....one is 490/1300 the other is 475/1250....these will still be ok in SLI together right?
2. I have an ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe....according to the manual when I plug in the monitor to the card im supposed to plug it into the top card in the blue pci-e port....according to an "installing SLI" thing I got with one of my gfx cards im suppoed to plug the monitor into the bottom of the two cards....which controdicts the ASUS manual....can anyone with this mobo and SLI tell me for sure which card im supposed to plug the monitor into?
3. I have a Hiper Type R 580watt PSU...will this be powerful enoguh for the specs in my sig + another 7800gtx?
Also, it says this PSU is SLI certified but as many people with this PSU will know it only has one dedicated pci-e connector, it is supplied with a dual molex to pci-e converter...this should be ok right and should I attach both the molexs or just one? and also to any of the molexs coming from the back of the psu in particular? are some of the 4 modular molex connections more powerful than others?
think thats all I can think of for now thats been bothering me a bit, please can people reply, it will put my mind at ease, thx
