SLI on Asus P5k-e P35

[chavo]

Hi,

I have the P5k-e wifi motherboard with 2 PCIe sockets. I have just bought a second 8800 GTS 320 superclocked from EVGA in the thought of getting a cheapish graphical performance boost.

whilst looking at performance expectations i am devastated to discover that Intel chipsets dont support SLI! these thread i read are quite old mind so I was wondering can anyone confirm that this is still the case and i have just wasted my money?

Do drivers from tweaktown fix it? are there any other ways to get these two running together?

Thanks

It supports crossfire, not SLI.

It needs to have a SLi chip on the motherboard for it to support SLi, which yours does not. Hope this helps

Even the X48 doesn't.

^^ no but there is a hack that uses the xfire chip as a sli chip i have seen sli runing on a x48 chip set runing games and worked fine
