Configuration
If you are planning on using this graphics card as part of an SLI system, the following
are required:
-
An SLI certified motherboard with two PCI Express x16 slots and correct chipset driver
-
Two GV-N96TZL-1GI/GV-N96TZL-512I
-
A power supply with 550-watt or above is recommended
-
An SLI bridge connector
(Note)
SLI technology requires a PCI Express motherboard with two x16 physical connectors. Graphics cards working in an
SLI configuration must be with the same model name (e.g. GV-N96TZL-1GI/GV-N96TZL-512I) and from the same
vendor (e.g. GIGABYTE TECHNOLOGY).
