So had an extra GTX 980 GPU card that my wife was using until she changed computers. I had two Asus GTX 980's in my computer already running in 2-way SLI so I figured why not try a 3rd. Even though it is an MSI it should still work. And it does! Except now instead of running two cards at 16x and 16x It is running things as 16x 8x 8x. For TGC my FPS actually dropped from 120 to about 70-85. On other games it did improve ESO, Everquest 2 and Tomb Raider another 20+ FPS. It is all so odd, but I guess it makes sense since TGC probably works best with a single one anyway. Oh well.

So I disabled the third GPU. Not only was it killing FPS in several games but it was limiting my Samsung 950 Pro speed due to the lesser amount of PCI lanes available. Probably not worth it unless you have the 5960x. Just an FYI.

And the global warming alarmists will be grateful!
