Default SLI and a Pair of GTX 260s
Hi guys. I recently received my 2 GTX-260s from EVGA's 90-Day Step-Up program and my original intent is to SLI them. However, I notice on the cards that they have two SLI interfaces leaving me to wonder if I can SLI 2 cards with a single 2-way SLI bridge. Is this possible or do I have to look at buying a 3-way SLI bridge?

Oh yea you could use a single SLI bridge, the reason they make 2 SLI interfaces is to support 3-Way SLI, like you have 3 cards is the only time you use those 3 way bridges. You are absolutely fine to use a single SLI bridge.
