Hello. Sorry if this question has been asked before but would like some clarification. I have 2 EVGA Super clocked ED. Titans on an MSI z77gd65 motherboard. The cards are with the stock fan/shroud. My question is that I probably would have to use the 2-3 way sli bridge due to the slot spacing, but I also have a Sound blaster  x-fi card buried between the 2 Titans using the PCI-e slot. Will I have an issue connecting the SLI bridge with the sound card being in the way? Thanks

So I'm guessing my set up would be a 3 or 4 Sli Bridge Pro?

Well like you said, you already have your rig Sli with that sound card, which I believe that sound card is smaller & tucked in the back, is the sound card touching the Sli bridge?...if not then it shouldn't be a problem with the Sli Pro.

That looks like 2 slots in between the cards? If so 3-way.

Thanks for the reply. My sound card is actually flush with the shroud on titans. My MSi SLI bridge is flexible so I don't have the problem of attaching it. It looks though as the EVGA bridges do not flex, so I just want to make sure.

Thanx I thought so, I was just comparing the images, well I did pick 3-way on that giveaway!
@ least when you purchase it & it does not fit, one can always send it back for an exchange of the right one.

Yeah I see what you mean now, I looked up your Mobo & I know you cant compare SC vs On Board, but nowadays Mobo has really good 7.1 audio, the only solution for you is either use the On Board in order to use those Sli Pro or leave it alone if it ain't broken why fix it, I know having them Sli Pro make's great eye candy it's really on you there bro.

Just curious if this SLI bridge will work with the Asrock Z87 extreme6?  There's an awkward amount of space between the 1st PCIe slot and 2nd.
 
I might be changing to the Asus Z87 Pro so can you let me know the compatibility on that one too?  Thanks

I believe a 3-way Sli Pro will work on That Asrock Z87 space you have there, I have the same space on my MSI Mobo Sli setup, same goes for that Asus Z87, basically 2 slot space between cards.

This is what it would look like

So to clarify, my Titans/mobo have a one slot spacing, so I assume the 2 way sli connector would be the way to go. The 2/3 way connector I assume will not work on a one slot setup? Any update on the 2 way sli and if EVGA will be designing a wider 2 way connector?
