Hey guys, I need an nVidia SLI Bridge for use with two 9800GT video cards. It needs to be the 70mm (approx. 3") bridge, ie it is for use with a motherboard that has two slot in-between the two video card slots.

Looking to pick up ASAP, otherwise I might as well just order one online, but would prefer to not have to wait...

Thanks!

Son of a bitch. I've got the flexible kind and the one made out of motherboard type material. Both are in madison, if you'd have posted this yesterday :(

Yeah, I didn't get the motherboard in until yesterdayand spent a few hours last night getting it all setup (590SLI chipset) struggling with the fact that new motherboards just HATE old RAID cards...

So I got it up and running and did a burn-in on it all night to make sure it was 100% before I posted the inquiry for the SLI bridge...

Either bridge will work as long as they are the right size...

Kinda sad that this new rig, my secondary system, with dual 9800GTs in SLI with this motherboard and a Athlon X2 5400+ OC'd to 3.2Ghz (with 4gbDDR2800 running at 950) will spank my main machine with a 780a chipset mobo, 4gb 1066PC2-8500, a Phenom 9950BE @ 2.95Ghz and a GTX280... I know I have more total processing power on the 780a rig, but considering that one is running a 1920x1200 24" and the other a 1680x1050 22", in games the 590SLI rig running cards in SLI should be a bit quicker... Oh well, I can always add an additional GTX280 to my main machine if I *need* the graphics power, and that board will run the new AM3 processors as well... At least my kids will be enjoying the new rig daily...

Let me know if it will be anytime soon for you to grab the bridges, otherwise I'll just order one...
