What troop is talking about is cheap boards that are not true SLI. The ones that run the vid cards at half to make it work and seem cool. What dotile has it a real SLI board that actually uses both cards fully. But they tend to run quit a few more bucks. I have one 8800GTS and see no reason to add a second one. Even though I could.

But to answer your original qestion both my vid card and mother board both came with that stupid connector. What my video card didn't come with was the power adapter I needed (assholes). So I just bought a better power supply with the plug already on it lol.

over heating vid cards = bad fyi.

Sorta. My Mainboard is 1 of the most expensive SLI boards asus sells, the a8n sli deluxe. Its got the EZ connector/bridge, EZ Power plug, which is just the molex connecotor to the mobo vs a pci-e connector from the PSU, and they have spaced it out 3 slots in between for cooling, but even with individual heatsinks and fans on both my gpu's, with overclocking, my system would hang at boot. That with OCZ StealthXStream 600W PSU (so thats not the issue), nor is the motherboard. Yet my single card runs about 7C cooler and takes up less space, and I can see my chkdsk In Love
