T3500 SLI

Hi,

I have been considering using a T3500 with 2 GPUs for a while and was wondering if the T3500 is SLI compatible, I found this thread that asked the same question but was never answered: [View:en.community.dell.com/.../19428719:550:0]

I know that i will need a new PSU and have upgraded a few T3500s with the Corsair CX750M PSU which will supply enough power for my needs.

If anybody can shed any light on the SLI question it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

A

No Idea about "certification but SLI works"  High end cards need a 1100 Watt power supply for T7500  R622G  

SLI-certified is not required to run SLI in any system. NVIDIA recommends a PCI-E 2.0 x16 motherboard for the best performance. Please make sure you have updated your motherboard SBIOS to the latest version. Dual-GPU graphics cards such as GeForce GTX TITAN Z cards do not require an SLI motherboard and work on all compatible motherboards.


Chipset

  • Intel® X58 chipset allows for  NVIDIA 2-way SLI and ATI CrossFireX Multi-GPU Technology.  However High end cards would need 1000w power supply to do this.

Graphics Card

  • Support for 2 PCI Express x16 Gen 2 graphics cards up to 150 watts (total) including:

    High End 3D:
    NVIDIA Quadro® 5000
    NVIDIA Quadro 4000

    Mid-range 3D:
    AMD FirePro V7900

    AMD FirePro V5900
    NVIDIA Quadro® 2000

    Entry 3D:
    ATI FirePro™ V4800
    NVIDIA Quadro® 600

    Professional 2D:
    NVIDIA Quadro® NVS 420 quad monitor card
    NVIDIA Quadro® NVS 295
    ATI FireMV™ V2260

    All graphics cards support dual monitor configurations.

Thanks for all that info, but i can see that the chipset supports SLI but has dell got the right certification to run an SLI configuration. I know that all the problems would be gone if i used crossfire but i don't like AMD/ATI cards
