Introducing EVGA Pro SLI Bridges

btarunr · Aug 13, 2013

EVGA rolled out a trio of custom-design NVIDIA SLI bridge cables, one each for 2-way, 3-way, and 4-way SLI setups. Its design involves an ingot-shaped top, with three sides covered with brushed aluminum, and a centerpiece with a white glowing EVGA logo, next to an NVIDIA SLI one. The EVGA logo illuminates when the bridge is plugged in to GeForce GTX 700 series (or later) graphics cards. The 2-way, 3-way, and 4-way bridges are available on EVGA store, priced at $29.99, each.

Features:

Several models that are compatible with 2-Way, 3-Way or 4-Way SLI.
EVGA logo illuminates on GeForce GTX 700 series and later.
Compatible with all SLI enabled graphics cards.
Looks awesome!

Really?! A light up logo?!

radrok · Aug 13, 2013

Totally hideous imho.

Batou1986 · Aug 13, 2013

30$ sli bridges
:roll:

Lionheart · Aug 13, 2013

Look nice but $30... no thanks :laugh:

micropage7 · Aug 13, 2013

i have to say they are nice
but for that price i guess its pretty high

i dunno maybe some people would buy it than modding their own bridge

shovenose · Aug 13, 2013

Would nicely match a pair of GTX Titans (or any other cards using that cooler design).
But come on, that can't cost more than $2 to build chargning $30 is ridiculous. $5 maybe??

Jorge · Aug 13, 2013

Some naive people will buy anything. This ranks right up their with "pet rocks"...

PopcornMachine · Aug 13, 2013

Ok, I'm as much into the looks of my PC as lot of people are.

But no way am I paying $30 for multi-card bridges. That's just stupid.

erixx · Aug 13, 2013

EVGA has gone the H-D (Harley Davidson) route: save your broken company by means of PR-pills all day all time and turn your customers into willing ***holes.... by making them believe they really really have to be sooo special

Who would want SLI anyways, it's nothing but trouble :S

Me?

Hood · Aug 13, 2013

They should sell at least a dozen of these at $30, the rest after they hit the bargain bin for $5.99...

jihadjoe · Aug 13, 2013

This is witchcraft! How does the bridge know the difference between a 770 and a 680?

Fourstaff · Aug 13, 2013

Instead of charging $9.99 for a $9 profit, why not charge $29.99 for a $29 profit? After all, people who are willing to buy in the first place are ready to spend any amount of money to bling up.

most likely there has been a power pin added to the 7 series that isn't on the 6 series to illuminate the LED.

I've use SLI since the 7 series, I wouldn't say it has been totally problem free, but I've only really had one major trouble with it. So I wouldn't say it has been nothing but trouble.

jihadjoe said:

Maybe the voltage used between the cards is higher on the GTX700 cards, and the LEDs won't work on previous cards that use a lower voltage?

ensabrenoir · Aug 13, 2013

Yeeaah...I'd buy that..

....seriously people? If you knew how overpriced 99% of the stuff we buy is(every...almost every company is in business to make a profit)...this thing blends right in. Will get one just because...and done right.. it could look killer. I think I've spent more on braided cables....

Static~Charge · Aug 13, 2013

Newsflash for EVGA: We aren't Apple customers. Take your overpriced crap and go home.

Hilux SSRG · Aug 13, 2013

As long as it's PRO, I'll buy. :rolleyes:

jagd · Aug 13, 2013

LMAO it was much needed after a crap day :toast:

, Thank you .

Sinzia · Aug 13, 2013

I like how they look, but if they were a bit cheaper ($19.99) then I'd get it, I dislike the floppy style dual card SLi connectors.

Best investment I ever did with my 460s. Has aged much better than any past build.

But this product...just stupid.

So, when do we get CrossfireX bridges that aren't ribbons?
