Probably a really odd question but:
 
When SLIing GTX 700 series video cards together can the Stream Processors utilize SLI? Or was this not included in the SLI stack?

    I'm not sure what you mean by utilize SLI. SLI basically has each GPU render alternate frames using AFR or partial frames using SFR. Your question is a bit unclear about what exactly you are asking.

    GTX 660 and above through the 700 series area capable of doing live stream encoding directly on the video card (there is actually an encoder processor on these cards).
     
    My question is can these processors utilize SLI
     
    i.e. Nvidia ShadowPlay

    So you are asking if the onboard H.264 encoder can be used together like the cards do when SLi'd? I think you are confused as to what the definition of streaming processors truly means. Dunno how nvidia does the H.264 encoding when using SLi. Is one left dormant without use, who knows, maybe someone else can answer. But I don't think it matters as the quality with 1 is the same as using SLi when recording/streaming. ;)

    I get what you're saying at the end. My man question is just performance. I guess in the end it wouldn't matter as SLI still perform well even with one encoder running. I was just curious.
