Okay I went through the whole thread and just want to double confirm something: my mobo is an Asus P8Z77-V Pro and I have a 780 in slot 1 and another 780 in slot 3.
Current spacing on my SLi connector between the middle of the 2 SLi black connectors is 60mm exactly: am I SOL and can't use any of those bridges? :(

Wow...these look really cool. However, I hardly ever look inside my case because I HATE wire management!

Which connector should I go with? Maximus VI Formula motherboard: http://i.imgur.com/HcgVpTt.jpg Also, curious as to if these will only be available via the EVGA store or if other vendors such as newegg and/or amazon will get them in the future. Look awesome btw, thanks for keeping us updated, Jacob.

From my understanding, none of these current bridges will fit the VI Formula. EVGA needs to make one with 1 slot space in between cards for VI Formula.

Yes, it can still light up even with one cards only.

Well, I had a moment to drop by the house and do some poking around. Apparently I do not own a ruler, so I printed (from pdf) a mm ruler and it looks like the 2way SLI bridge would work as the product page notes the plugs are 40mm apart:

That's funny. I got 6cm using my measuring tape from connector to connector on my VI formula bridge. The product overview even states "Supports 2-Way (with no slot spacing on double width graphics cards)" but your welcome to test it out and let us know how it works :-)

Okay I went through the whole thread and just want to double confirm something: my mobo is an Asus P8Z77-V Pro and I have a 780 in slot 1 and another 780 in slot 3.
Current spacing on my SLi connector between the middle of the 2 SLi black connectors is 60mm exactly: am I SOL and can't use any of those bridges? :(
You are in the same boat as a lot of us ASUS owners. The bridges will not fit our 60mm spacing. Hopefully EVGA will make some that will fit.

Why wont it fit the 60mm spacing? The EVGA 2 way bridge has a 60mm spacing while the 3 way bridge has 40mm spacings.

Important update for 2-Way SLI Users! The 2-Way SLI Bridge will accommodate 2-way SLI with SINGLE slot spacing. Each SLI finger is 60mm apart. Please reference below image:  The 3-Way SLI Bridge can also accommodate 2-Way with DUAL Slot spacing. In this case the fingers are 80mm apart. Please reference below image:

It would be cool for those with different configurations/spacing to have an adjustable EVGA Pro SLI bridge. Has anything like this been considered or are there technical reasons why it may not work?

Samsung 840 PRO 256 GB | Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB | Intel 520 SATA SSD 240GB HD | 2 TB WD Black Hard Drive

So does that mean 2-way SLI does not work on mobos without spacing in between...? I haven't ordered yet but I imagine everyone who did order were basing their order on the 40mm spacing. In my case I have a uATX mobo with exactly 40mm, so it's definitely a bummer if the 2-way does not work for that spacing.

The 2/3 Way has 40mm spacing. You could use that one?

Yes sorry, the 2-Way is for a single slot in between.
Also the 2-way bridges have not yet been released.
The 3-Way CAN work, but it just may look a bit strange like that :)

Ah gotcha. I thought that the 2-way had just sold out so fast I missed it. So I guess at this point my question would be what people were asking earlier - do you guys have plans to make a different 2-way bridge with the 40mm spacing originally mentioned? And I'm glad to hear the 2/3 way could work. I'm thinking about it as it's really hard to find a solid 40mm SLI bridge that doesn't look awful. But I'm not sure that having a chunk of SLI bridge hanging down past the card will look that great either :/
