dxtremefx I finally received mine.

The V8GTS doesnt block RAM slots? At least for heat spreaders as tall as the Ballistix tactical tracers? I can see that it hangs over 2 slots but as far as I can tell the heat spreaders fit under it.
I ditched the V8 GTX, for a CORSAIR Hydro Series H100i Water Cooler.

It just wasn't cooling enough at 4.5GHz. I might just switch to a complete custom dual loop system.

Cool, so the other end of the LED strip has some kind of connector, to plug in the molex connection ?

WOW, do you really need 3 cards, LOL... Cool bro, I really appreciate if you post the pictures and maybe let me know where I can buy the LED strips at in RED! I am sending back one of my 760 GTX cards because it sounds like its going to explode. The weird thing is I bought 2 of the same cards but maybe a month apart. One of them looks slightly different. It is the same part # but for whatever reason one has a plastic cover that covers up the heatsinks on the side... If you look at the side of your video cards in your picture can see your heat sinks. One of my cards looks exactly like that, and the other has a plastic shell covering it.

So if I wanted to use the 2/3 Way Bridge I would have to put it in the 3rd slot , correct ? I like the 2/3 Way bridge because its bigger and I want to do the LED mod to make it glow !

Not sure the 3 way would work if you put it in the third slot. You'd have to measure.

I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR OUTCOME FROM FOLLOWING USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. R3YOWN$_ROG WOW, do you really need 3 cards, LOL... Cool bro, I really appreciate if you post the pictures and maybe let me know where I can buy the LED strips at in RED!
Okay as promised the info the led's and yes you can get them in red and they are 12v can be found at Hobbypartz so all I did was take the screws out of the back and stuck my Led's to the bridge removed the resistor and added a 4th led simple math 4 led's at 3v each = 12v Replaced the face on the bridge ran 12v from the psu and there you have it and the 3way bridge has spacing of this or hope this helps

Really? my EVGA Superclock cooler does 5GHz without any difficulty. And if I recally the EVGA Superclock is slighty better than the V6 GT which the V8 GTS is also slighty better than. whitie63 so all I did was take the screws out of the back and stuck my Led's to the bridge removed the resistor and added a 4th led simple math 4 led's at 3v each = 12v
are they in series or parallel?

From my understanding they are only available on select 770's, but someone posted a mod to make your own LED light up... If you look back in this thread you can find it... But click the link for the EVGA bridge and they tell you the specific models that work
