Hi!
This link not working.

This is good?

safe mode with network?

Normal mode.

Normal mode.

You should execute Install.cmd instead of opening it in your browser.
I just tested it again and it can show successfully sign and timestamp.

call "tools\signtool.exe" sign /v /s DifferentSLIAuto /n DifferentSLIAuto /t http://timestamp.digicert.com "%_nvlddmkm%.sys"

Timestamp added to nvlddmkm.sys

Thanks, I'll try.

All is ok!

Thank you!

Hi!
Will there be a new DifferentSLIAUto to new driver?

 

[t00kalmi]

It doesn't work with 446.14 with drive only with 332.33

Good day guys, some questions:
1、any solutions for windows 11? It was said that Windows 11 only supports drivers after 472.XX, I don't want to reinstall windows 10 with my python environment reset again lol.
2、I have two p102-100 cards out put with GTX750, does it mean the SLi result will be 3-way hybrid?
3、P102-100 is locked at 1.1x4. With SLi bridge, will the total PCIE-bandwidth be expanded to 1.1X8?
Thanks

Guys I can't resist my desire for such SLI case so I reinstalled my system, and finally this fxcked up.
527.XX: Not capable, even cannot find such HEX numbers.
417.XX-425.XX: Unable to SLI since P102-100 does not have any video outputs, while GTX750 does not support such cross-gen SLI in such drivers.
388.XX: YES a 3-way-SLI appears, but unfortunately when I enable such 3-way SLI, the screen black out and the computer restarts, and I have to reinstall the drivers.
Principle: SLI has to be operated on Cards with Video outputs

Has anyone found a way to get SLI working on 5xx series drivers?

Awesome thread! Been using differentsliauto 1.7.1 without any problems on an AM3+ board BUT now I'm Running into issues on this ROG STRIX 550F with an m.2 nvme in the slot closest to the CPU and an SSD on sata. Page 94 theres a mention that an m.2 in the first slot will "disable" the second PCIe slot on the motherboard. Is this true? And if so I would assume that this is my dilemma? Same prep as always with 446.14 desktop drivers, change paths and timestamp in install.cmd, HEX the original nvlddmkm values, patch and install. Pics below are GPU 1 and 2, both MSI GTX 1060 GAMING X Plus cards. Note the PCIe config on card 2.

Hi all,

I feel like I have a fairly specific issue: I'm trying to run dual gtx titan X in a Dell T7910.
As a workstation its motherboard is sli certified, but only for Quadro cards, which might be the reason why I don't get the SLI option in the nvidia control pannel.
Looking into it, I've heard I might be able to go around that issue with DifferentSLIAuto, but it feels overkill for what I'm trying to achieve. Do you guys know of a better solution or is that the only way, in which case, what driver should I revert back to?

Thanks

Went through the install process. Didn't work. The only obvious issue was when I ran the DifferentSLIAuto patch. It said it couldn't "find patch #4" thus aborted the process. Any idea what I did wrong ?

Hello, i recently aqquired a pc from a friend and was wondering if its compatibile with this method of using SLI
It has 2 gpus
gtx 1650
and
gtx 1650-super

cpu is an i5-2500

motherboard is hp1494

if is possible to use with this pc, could you link to the relevant install steps?
if its not possible, let me know so i dont try to do things that wont work.

thanks in advance.

Hello, First time here. Came here because i have a non SLI compatable Motherboard and planning to get 2 GTX 970s. I don't need the bridge correct? And im planning to do this to test out this game called beamNG.drive in SLI. It doesnt support SLI normaly but people have gotten CROSSFIRE and MGPU and even SLI (in like 2013 though) but i don't know if it still works.

Anyways it has 2 APIs. Direct X 11 and Vulkan. Would i be able to enable it forcefully and try it out in one of these APIs? And would it be worth testing out? (It has no anti cheat as far as i know.)

Thanks from any help here.

I remember when SLI on different cards came out.. I was a happy camper

No camping though

This only works on old cards with old drivers and a bunch of workarounds. Do not rely on this to work, and make a backup of your OS before attempting the mods.

Ah alright then.

Thanks. Guess ill have to get an SLI compatable motherboard

That still wont work, those aren't SLI compatible cards
Edit: sorry mixed you up with the post above yours.

If they're properly identical 970's SLI will work, and the reason the other board isn't SLI certified is it will have a 16x and a 4x slot, not two 8x slots - they need more bandwidth for SLI to work properly or you got a performance loss, not a gain.

I mean i know mine has 2 X16 slots and costed me 200+ (X570S Msi Tomohawk Max Wifi) but doesn't have sli certification which kinda sucks.

Just wanted to try out sli to see if it is possible to sli in the game im trying to pull sli in

 

[68Olds]

The x570s Tomahawk has two physical x16 slots, but one of those slots is only x4 electrically (page 5 in the manual).
Yes, you do need a bridge for the GTX 970 in SLI.
There are 3 different versions of the GTX 970, and both cards must be the same version or SLI absolutely won't work.

Well that sucks. Oh well. Thanks for the information!

That does not have two 16x slots


MSI are to blame for misleading users here, as they claim it has two 16x slots based on their physical size
No modern consumer board has this, hasn't been a thing since AM3+.
You'd need a Threadripper board for that, these days.

The manual has some honesty to it, at least

Most other boards will divide the first slots 16x lanes into two 8x lanes, but that means even a 1x card in that second slot takes half the bandwidth from your GPU.
MSI did the right thing by single GPU users by having a 4x slot there instead, but should have kept it looking like a 4x slot and not pretending it was a 16x.

Hello, excuse me for my bad english
I have 2x gt 1030 same model, same everything.
I used the 1.7 DifferentSLIAuto and driver 385.41
When I go to activate SLI it appears that I need close some exes, I cant close because when i close in task manager a few seconds later they appear again. (the second one it doesnt appear)
Thanks
