a few question about SLI

[hoofhearted4]

SLI, thats when two Graphics Cards are running in tandem right?

 

so is this complicated, or is at as simple as just plugging in a second graphics card or what?

 

do they have to be the same card or anything?

 

cause i plan on buying a 560 graphics card when i build my PC, but maybe next summer ill buy a 580 or something. i can do this right? have both running and improve my graphics?

 

 

and to save on having to create another thread, a question about over clocking.

 

if i have an i5-2500k CPU (3.3ghz) how much can i safely OC it on its stock heatsink. what about on a good 3rd party heatsink? just wondering how far i could go before id have t go liquid cooling or something :P

 

 

thanks for your help guys :)

With SLI you have to use the same GPU preferably the same manufacturer and model.
