How can I run two Gtx Geforce 1070 in sli

[Hitchens77]

Hello guys. Im looking for advice on fitting another Gtx 1070 graphics card. As I understand it its called Sli. How do I know if my pc can handle doing this?

It deppends heavily on your Motherboard and PSU.

Post both here and we'll help you!

Your motherboard has to be SLI / Crossfire certified. A quick Google search for your mobo model should reveal this information. You'll also need a fairly good power supply; for 1070 SLI, a 750w PSU should be the minimum to aim for.

You'll also need an SLI bridge to connect the 2 cards. The older "ribbon" style SLI cables will still work with 1070 / 1080 cards in SLI, but for maximum performance, you need Nvidia's new SLI HB (High Bandwidth) bridge.

Hi. My motherboard is a Gigabyte H81M-S2H Motherboard, and the PSU is a Corsair CX600 80 Plus Bronze Certified 600w Power Supply. Hope this helps. Thanks for your quick response

Unfortunately, your board is a micro-ATX and only has one PCI-E graphics slot, so you can't run SLI 🙁

Yeah you cannot with that motherboard, it has to be a Z170 motherboard on that socket to run SLI.

If you want more performance then get a 1080 instead.
