As the title says, thank you.

This with this.

Do I need a bridge, and if I do can you recommend one? Or would each GPU run two monitors instead of one? Is it even worth it? I already have a spare 1050 Ti, I'm not knowledgeable at all with SLI, thanks.

Sometimes yes but there can be driver issues. It's absolutely no work for a 1070 to drive a monitor on the desktop. It won't help performance any. It'll just make you need more connectors from your power supply and more heat from a pointless second card

I read that two cards can be SLI'ed but I didn't know a 1050 couldn't be thank you. Can I rig it up and have the 1070 on one monitor and the 1050 Ti on another? Thanks again.

Thank you. I had hoped it would be beneficial. I guess I'm getting another 1070 or upgrading. Thanks again!
