I'm pretty sure SLI connectors are just bridges with no actual circuits on them so EVGA is talking out their ass as usual when they say "High pixel clock design optimized for 4K+ and 120Hz+ gaming"
I'm sure some fool will buy these and a 1000$ HDMI cable to go with them.
But hey, it's perfectly fine to make money off retarded people.
That said, I could see these looking good if you were case modding or something. But please, don't pretend they do anything other than look pretty over the other cables...

....and yeah after spending several hunderd dollars on sli cards.... $30 bucks or so aint too much for a bridge. Would have been nice if it was rgb or we could create our own message though....
It's great how AMD came to their senses and now just use up the ample of available spare PCI-E bandwidth instead.
I bet the only reason Nvidia didn't end up doing the same by now is probably because "hurr durr consumers want to see and feel an actually additional connection between the cards, even if doing that is not really necessary. kappa."
"-Guys we need to create a need for something that has eluded everyday SLI-users. Something they have never thought could be tweaked.
- Ahhh sir, how about "we make a Pro SLI bridge?
- Excellent idea young padwan" ;)
Joke aside, for the bling factor it might be worth it I guess.
