I think I understand. I can't remember how long ago, but I do recall reading about "Software SLI"???? not positive though. Where the cards do run SLI w/out the bridge, but don't scale quite as well.

it only works on the low end cards with no bridge. It wont work on these cards - quad SLI requires a bridge
