SLI XFX 250 Question

[KingEojj]

I notcied that the XFX 250's have 2 sli bridge slots, do I need 2 bridges to SLI or can I just use one? My mobo only came with 1 bridge and I believe the only way to get another is to contact XFX (using xfx 790i ultra) and have them send out another one.

All im asking is if its neccesary to have 2, is there any kind of performance bonus to having 2 or is that another slot used for something else?

Thanks

I believe the other slot is used if you want to take 3 graphics cards and Tri-SLI them. For your purposes, you just need to use one SLI bridge!

Yep, you got it. The extra bridge is there so it bridges #1 card to the #2 card and the #2 card uses the second slot for a bridge to the #3 card.
