    "... and it’s only compatible with the GeForce GTX 1080 and 1070 graphics cards."

    People best pay attention to this.

    Didn't they say they would be $30? Maybe that was just my imagination.

    I don't recall a price being mentioned.  It is about what I thought it would be.  I am guessing the new EVGA ones will be similarly priced to what the current LED SLI bridges are priced.  I am in no rush for this.  I like the looks of the EVGA one better so I will wait.

    Can't wait to see the results between the new hb bridge and the older led type bridges. Looks like they will be the same.

    Problem is I can't fit more than one EVGA LED bridge on my cards. Going to two regular bridges has resulted in more stable performance for me than the one EVGA bridge.

    doesn't his mean that you do not need the new HB bridges if you have for example the EVGA V2 bridge? Unless you are running 5K or surround+

    Yep. You can run 5k or surround+ with the older bridges. Only difference is the newer hb bridge is suppose to make gameplay more smoother @ higher resolutions....

    As someone who is running 2x 1080s at 4k, these cards annihilate any game already. Obviously I am at 60hz so maybe it will benefit those with higher refresh rate monitors, but for me everything is already a steady 60FPS with ultra settings, I don't know if the bridge will actually enhance my experience because it really can't get any better than it is already. Although it may actually make a small difference I won't notice it. And really, I'm not sure if the 2 ribbon bridges aren't doing the same thing as the HB bridge anyway. I don't get the message in NVCP about needing a high bandwidth bridge when I use 2 ribbon bridges. But I wouldn't want to leave any performance on the table, and I will be buying an EVGA one for the looks anyway!
