Thanks for the free 2x Powerlinks EVGA for my gtx SLI 1070SC setup ... You guys are the best!
 
[Apparently, I received my 2xPowerlinks at my job 11/14 but folks in the Bronx Zoo decided to *hold* onto my precious cargo until today.]
 
Just like in Jayz2cents vid on this... [He's such a cool-dude.]
 
1. Installation was kinda awful! Lol... This is on my old 2011v1 ThermalTake lv10 GT case! I didn't trust the connections initially on the cards themselves.
 
2. Also, the first-time I used the wrench to completely remove 1 of the 2x8-pin connectors, the allen-screw got lost within the device so I had to jiggle it like a piggy-bank for about 5mins to get it back!
 
Lol... [Note: Do-not completely unscrew on either end -- You only need to loosen them on both sides to remove a connector or slide them around.]


3. Chasis space has been 'saved' and overall, I feel like my setup looks kinda cooler, but not by much.

Yes, my case is dusty as hell... I will eventually get one of those *cool* fractal cases, maybe the one Jay has for Skunkworks.

    The images are too large. Upload them to imgur or photobucket, and then post them using the URL option.
