Pics will be up tonight! Hey all...been a long time lurker and finally pulled the trigger on a DS :) I'm beyond excited and the community seems amazing. I should have requested some input from you all before ordering though! OOPS! My Velox is arriving 10/19, and I couldn't be more excited.

Good question! Bpratt is absolutely correct, in sli your system will match speeds to the lowest clock of the two, which is why it is helpful to have one of the cards OC'd I'm getting anxiousssssssssssss |

I think what you mean to say is that you oc both cards and then simply enable or disable the oc profile as needed, otherwise it makes no sense.
Now where are those pics??? Edited by DST4ME - 22 Oct 2016 at 4:24am |
