[SOLVED] Two GPU Motherboard Support.

[geok9875]

What Cheap Motherboards alow me to connect two identical Gpu's and Both have the Same Speed with out SLI, Just Plug and Go.
GPU's are two 1050 Ti's with pci x16.
I need them to have the same speed for gaming, they will be connected with surround so i dont want one monitor to be slower than the other.

Theoretically you can use any motherboard with 2 16x PCIe slots, just you can't use them in SLI because they don't support SLI.

And they will share same speeds?

Look up the specs of the motherboard. They should state x8/x8 for the expansion slots.

So if one of the two is an x16 and the other is a pci 16 downshifted to x4 will i see lag ?

For a 1050Ti, probably not, but honestly, this is a bad idea all around. Why do you need two separate graphic cards?

You can't play games using the power of both cards if that's what you're trying to do.

The only option I could see making sense is using two cards to increase the amount of displays you want to have. In which case the 1050 Ti is very overkill unless you got them cheap.

A 1050 Ti even running at PCIe 3.0 x4 will still work perfectly fine

one reason is yes more monitors plus is i extend the window of the game to the other monitors of the second card. is there is going to be a lag between the monitors from each gpu. i am aware that a single card is used for a game.

dual graphics cards is an epic waste of time/money - most of the time - just get a single decent GFX card
