Hi
I am having issues getting my two EVGA Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080 Ti FTW3 to work in SLI on my ASUS ROG STRIX X570-E Gaming Wifi II motherboard.
My boot drive is a Crucial M.2 NVME drive in the M.2_1 slot.
The GPUs are in slots PCIEX16_1 & PCIEX16_2 and are using a hard Nvidia SLI connector. I know the SLI connector works as I used it on my last build (was working last week).
The issue I am having is that I am unable to SLI the two cards, there is no option in the Nvidia control panel. I am thinking this is because one of the GPUs is having to share minecraft PCIE channels with the NVME boot drive.
GUPz shows PCIe x16 3.0 @ x8 3.0 in the Bus interface field when 1 card is installed, the same info for card 1 when the second card is installed but with PCIe x16 3.0 @ x4 1.1 showing for the second card...
Is there some way I can continue to use the M.2 as my OS drive and get my GPUs to SLI? Is there a setting in the BIOS I can change to allow both cards to run at x16 3.0 or even x8 3.0?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
