I want to thank you for your continued work on this project. I've been checking this thread a few times a week since the Windows 8 RTM in anticipation of a new release. It has become an essential piece of software for me in the past year.

Tested 3 way SLI in Windows XP, 7 ultimate 64 and 8 pro 64, tested with BF3 and WOW both stable without flickering or artifacts.

as always you and your team are amazing!

cant believe how quickly you resolved both issues, you need a new challenge...lol

just tried some of my live apps.internet explorer etc and not working.not sure because of the patch or something else I done earlier.had to turn on the account control in order to use them at all.if someone else could check them and post back would be appreciated.i booted into the regular version of windows 8 without the patch and the resolution was changed to a lower one?thanks. update.i uninstalled the patch and have same problem so the patch might not be the cause of it.if some could check and post to let us know for sure.thanks

update-looks like the problem I was having was because my windows was messed up,as earlier I had messed around with the registry to get windows update working again as I think I got a virus or something.so I uninstalled the patch,then did a system refresh,installed the patch again and all seems to be working so far.sorry if I caused any doubts that it works.if I do find any problems later on,ill post back.have a good one.

Question

I have windows XP, Windows 7 ultimate and windows 8 pro all installed if you need anything.

spec:

2 x velociraptor 600g
Mem Vengeance LP 32g 1600

Hi Jesseleite,
I have the same motherboard that you, but with the CPU Phenom II X6 1100T. How works your FX-8150 with the Crosshair IV Extreme ? How many MHZ can you go with it ? Are the perfomance really better that the Phenom II ?

1. Yes works with dual, tri and quad SLi including different SLi.
2. See above.
3. Uninstall the Lucid drivers as a whole regardless of SLi they suck.

Hi cdawall !
I thank you very much for your answer.
Last question: is it necessary to put a bridge on my 3 GTX460 cards with the hyper SLI ? I have heard that the performance are better with the bridge. Is it thrue ?
I thank you very much in advance.
Best regards

Ok. I have to order two bridges; one for 2 way-SLI and one for 3 way-SLI.
Thank you Cdawall

Thank you Cdawall

You can use the same bridge between both as long as you order a single 3 way bridge.

Difference between Hyper SLI vs original SLI

With my 3 GTX460, how works the Hyper SLI ? 16x / 16x / 16x or 16x / 8x / 8x ?
With the Lucid chip I can work in 16x / 16x / 16x. But the problem with the Lucid Hydralogix is that the manufacture Lucid has stopped the update of theires Hydra drivers...and now the most of the last PC games (like Medal of Honor Warfithter ) are not compatibles.

Ha ok. It is too late, I have already the two bridges ordered... :)
But it don't worry about it, the bridges are not expensive :)
Thank you for the precision
