I have an Asus Z97-WS and 2 Evga Titans on the way (Hydro Coppers) and I'm looking for a nice SLI bridge for these cards.
 
Evga's Pro Bridges look right up my alley, however this is my first SLI build so I'm unfamiliar with which size/length I'll be needing.
 
Originally I was guessing this one, but the 2 gray PCI slots on the Asus (which I assume are where 2 cards will be sitting) look pretty far apart.
 
What are my options and will it interfere with the waterblocks?

I think you need the 2/3 way version to use those slots.  The one you linked has a slot spacing of 60mm.  The 2/3 way has 2 spacings of 40mm for a total spacing of 80mm.  If you can confirm what dimensions you need, that way you will know for sure.

Hey guys, 
 
My apologies for the too often repeated dull question "Will it fit my Motherboard".
 
I have looked back at the previous pages and found that one person on page 15 has posted pictures of using the 2x SLI bridges on the Maximus V formula (same motherboard I have, going to attach the bridge on 2x EVGA SC w/ ACX 780 Tis) right now. My question is which one of the two 2-way bridges should i use ?
 
I've looked at both products and they look identical which makes it hard to identify which one he is using.

Wilco. I got the board and a rough measurement showed distance around the 80mm mark. I've ordered the 2/3-way and will confirm when everything arrives.
 
I also ordered the flex adapter as well. I'd rather have a "black" backup bridge if I dislike the look/fit of the 2/3. The standard Asus poop brown bridge just wont do.

Confirming 2/3 fits fine for the Asus Z97-ws

Hey guys, i have a question,
 
im going to install 2 GTX 780's in my pc, and i want to use the pro sli bridge, they'll be going in an Asus z97 deluxe.  What bridge do you think i need, there is 2 pci/e 1x slots in between the pci/e 16x slots which the graphics cards are going into.
 
Thanks in advance!

If you can find out the measurement between the slots, that would be a good start.  If its 60mm, that would mean you need the 2 way (not 2 way short).  If it is 80mm, you need the 2/3 way version.  If it doesn't measure any of those, you are out of luck.

Is there anyway of making sure I get the new version that supports SLI in 4k? My current bridges cause flickering. My cards are 8cm apart. I live in the UK
