SLI Bridle Compatibility

[jbcallender 53]

Well, my second ZOTAC GTX 980 arrived today so that I can start on SLI with P3D.  Unboxed it, and it had no SLI bridle in the box.  Of course I pitched the one from the first 980 I bought because we wouldn't have P3D SLI in our lifetimes.  Can't believe it.  Searched through four boxes of old cables , three old MB boxes and two large boxes of AC adapters that I have and I found two sets of Palm software if anyone needs it

 

Bottom line, I managed to find an ASUS SLI bridle from a couple of years ago.  They physically fit - are the pinouts compatible and a standard part of the spec from major manufacturer to the next?

 

I still just can't believe it.

The SLI Bridge connector you mean? I think you are fine. You will get a pop up alert if the two cards aren't bridged. I think I'm using one that came with my mobo too.

Great, thanks.  I suspect they are compatible..Just don't want to lose the magic blue smoke in $1100 worth of vid cards.
