EVGA Announces Aluminum-Housed “Pro SLI Bridges” V2

Posted on April 11, 2015

Graphics manufacturer EVGA yesterday announced its second iteration of “Pro SLI Bridges,” effectively prettied-up bridges for multi-card solutions. The Pro SLI Bridge V2 is housed in an aluminum and offers an illuminated EVGA logo front-and-center, for those with compatible EVGA devices.

Functionally, the SLI bridges are equivalent to all other SLI bridges; they ship in two-, three-, and four-way models, with the pin receptor plated in a shiny alloy (though this will remain mostly invisible). The bridges, as with all modern SLI bridges, support high pixel clocks for utilization of high-end displays.

They appear to be a bit on the “fat” side, but if you’re looking for something more aesthetically pleasing than the standard ribbon SLI cable that ships with motherboards, this would be worth a consideration. NVIDIA also sells its own alloy-encased SLI bridges with its own logo, if those are preferable. A 2-way, non-spaced bridge from NVIDIA retails at roughly $30. The EVGA bridge pricing is yet undisclosed.
