This is my first time going Nvidia as I just recently purchase 2x GTX Titans SC and they are en-route.

Being that I haven't had nvidia, I don't have a sli bridge. What is a decent looking sli bridge that will work with the titans? I found a 4 way on the evga website, but read that it wouldn't work with a 2 way sli configuration.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

*Note - I just purchased the EVGA 3-Way SLI Bridge.

I hope this will work with 2x Titans.

It will definitely work with 2x Titans. I am using the same bridge with my two. But, didn't your motherboard come with an SLI bridge? Or maybe you just like the looks of this one better
 
Now that you say that, my 670 didnt come with a bridge.

However, my mobo didn't either.

then again my 7950s each came with one.

Guess its just depends on the manuf.

Just surprises me they make you spend $20 more on the bridge after spending 1k on the card.
 
I don't think your mobo ASUS P8Z68-V LE supports SLI. I couldn't find anything with a quick google.

They don't make you spend and extra $20. They come with motherboards. If you were planning on going SLI and didn't buy a board that came with one then that is your mistake. I don't recall ever seeing a board that supports SLI but doesn't come with a bridge.

Same here. Every mobo I've bought that supports SLI came with a SLI bridge so yeah I don't think your mobo supports it. Unless you can do a mod like some old nforce 4 boards, you're going to need a new mobo.
 
Also, why would anyone buy a 3-way bridge with plans for only two cards? That's gonna look bad and you should feel bad. Any plans to move up to 3-way? We wouldn't know since you didn't post specs and all.

Lot of the cheaper mobos don't really come with anything. I didn't get a CF or SLI bridge on an "SLI Ready" MSI Z77 mobo that was $80 at Fry's.

Maybe its a Z68 cheap mobo? As far I Know and in my experience and friends, all the SLI capable mobo comes with an SLI bridge.
 
Open box I guess, but then again why complain about missing SLI bridges if you bought an open box item.....

It looks great to me, much better than a brown, flattened cabled that most graphics cards come with. I liked the stiff 3-way bridge that came with my Gigabyte board, but when I switched to an Asus Sabertooth z77, it wouldn't work so I got some di-noc and stuck it on the flexible ribbon bridge to make it look black and cool.
