Two PCIE graphics cards installation (SLI Mode):

To install two SLI-ready graphics cards under SLI Mode, you will need to:

Prepare two identical NVIDIA certified, SLI-ready PCI Express X16 graphics cards (the same model from the same manufacturer).

Make sure the graphics card driver supports the NVIDIA SLI technology. Download the latest driver form NVIDIA website (www.nvidia.com).

Make sure your power supply unit is sufficient to provide the minimum power required.

The following illustration is served for DEMO only. All the devices, including the motherboard, the graphics cards, the SLI Bridge Connector, or the SLI bracket, may not be exactly the same type, shape, or model as the one you bought.

1.Insert two identical SLI-ready graphics cards into both PCIEXP1 and PCIEXP2 slots.

The NVIDIA SLI technology currently supports the Windows XP operating system only.

2.Bridge connecting two graphics cards with the “SLI Connector Card” (fit in both directions).
