8800 Ultra SLI

Installation

When together in your case you need a total of 4 6pin PCI-E cables to power them. This creates quite a problem for those who are really into their cable management. However, they do look pretty impressive when installed.

In terms of problems fitting these monster cards (see 8800 Installation), there isn’t much to say. If you have an SLI board and can fit a single Ultra in your case, its pretty likely it could take two. However, I was forced to remove my PhysX card to fit the second Ultra on my motherboard as my 2nd PCI-E 16x slot was situated too close to my only other PCI slot (the first is taken up with my sound card). So take into account that these cards use 2 slot coolers before purchasing one (or two).
