Does anyone know if the SLI connector is motherboard specific? I cant seem to find the one that came with my motherboard and want to upgrade to SLI.
 
Doesn't seem to be so. I just upgraded. Lost my original connector & bought one off ebay. It did happen to be an Asus connector, the same manufacturer as my motherboard. I am running 8800 GTX 640Mb cards by two different manufacturers and that doesn't seem to cause a problem.

Still irritated that I can't get SLI to work while displaying Flight Simulator X across both monitors though.
 
NVIDIA SLI connectors are all the same. Have no fear.
 
most all connectors should work, the only issue is that some connectors have a certain length different from others. if you've got one of those flexible bridges you shouldnt have any worries about that.
 
Yeah I bought a 120mm flexible cable from ebay for 5 bucks... figured this will ensure there is no length issues.
 
the SLI connector for my EVGA 680i board IS NOT GENERIC. It is specific to this board because of the spacing the PCI-e connectors. In general, most board manufacturers space the PCI-e connectors the same distance apart, but not all do so don't take it as a general assumption.
