Can I SLI on my motherboard?

[BowenTheMonkey]

My motherboard is the Asus P8Z77-V LX, on my motherboard my two GPU slots are PCIE X16 but it is not on my SLI list, is there a way I can SLI on this motherboard? Can I dedicate more power to the the GPUs to successfully SLI.

Nope, no SLI on that motherboard I'm afraid.

There is no possible way? Damn I don't really want to buy the LK version because it is an extra £200.

Nah, it looks like the 2nd PCI-e lane is running at x4, which makes SLI impossible as far as I know. Maybe someone else will come by with a magic work around that I don't know about, but that board is limited to crossfire I'm afraid.

You can only do Crossfire (with 2 AMD cards). This is because this board has one slot at x16 speed and the other one at only 4x. While AMD still allows Crossfire in this setup, Nvidia certification does not, it calls for at least x8/x8 for 2 slots.

Ah well, thank you both anyways.
