Hey, guys,
About 6 months ago, I built my PC using an EVGA GTX 275 Video Card and the Gigabyte X58 UD3R Motherboard. The specs don't say SLI Capable, however the reviews say it is. I have revision 1.0 of the board.
Lately, the main thing holding me back in my gaming is apparently that there's not enough VRAM. As such, I'd like to set up an SLI Configuration.
I have PCI Slot both of the motherboard and the case, so it needs to be a single slot card.
Here's what I'm thinking. (Click Me!)
But the problem is, I'm not quite sure how to do it, and the bigger problem is that my Motherboard did not come with an SLI Bridge, and I don't know where to get one.
Can somebody review this whole situation for me from the card to choice to the Bridge issue?
Also I need advice on this: Is my 750W Corsair PSU enough power?
Core i7 920 Not overclocked
6GB DDR3 RAM
Gigabyte X58 UD3R Motherboard
GTX 275 + 9800GT
ASUS TV Card plus Ethernet PCI Adapter
WD Caviar Black 1TB, WD Caviar Black 2TB, OCZ Vertex 60GB,
2 DVD Burners and 1 BD Reader
Antec 900 case
Like 12 or 13 USB Devices
A PSU Calculator online told me 583W but that seems pretty low so I just wanna be sure.
