Awesome pics everyone! I have the 2 way SLI bridge connecting to Classified 770s. However my LEDs aren't turning on. Is there something special you need to do to turn them on?
Try switching it to the other connectors. From my understanding it should just light on once connected.
If you run out of options than I would just RMA it.
So EVGA contacted me and told me that the LEDs won't light with the 770 Classified cards. Still like the bridge though.
WHAT?! Jacob even stated that it would only light up with the 700 series and Titans. Oh well, I am not worried but sucks for those that bought it with 760s/770s.
Why does it suck for those with 760/770? All he said was the 770 classy which is a custom PCB and it doesn't say it is limited to the 780/titans.

I thought they meant in general before the 780. Thanks for the correction.

Now does it suck?  I knew what I read a while before. Only works on selected models for the 760 is meh.

Sad that I cannot use my New 3-Way on the X79 Dark in the two x16 slots. I would be willing to sell mine for $20.00

Why not?
To small. See http://forums.evga.com/fb.ashx?m=2008542 the space between each card is 60mm. The new Bridge is about between the 1st and 2nd is 40mm and the 3rd 40mm so between 1st and 3rd is 80mm.

I believe your connector for that setup would be the 2 way only. 2 way has one open PCI-E Lane in between.

It could be but EVGA_JacobF recommended the 2/3 way and by years end I will have 3rd card. The 3-Way and the 4-Way that came with the X79 Dark will also not work that are all 40mm between ports. Not even sure if I could even use the 4-Way it looks like it is 40mm between each port as well.  My Plans for the 3 Cards in the Dark Card 1 & 2 run at x16 after the 3rd card in installed all three will run x8

Get the 3-way till you get a 3rd card or get a 2-way and 3-way for the heck of it.
