Originally the idea was that pcie is good enough Turns out that it wasn’t but by the time the next gen was cooking ai started becoming a thing so there was no way njudea was putting a proper interconnect on consoomer gpus. It’s a good thing, too, otherwise you’d be competing for every dinky 16gb 5070ti with small sized corpos willing to throw $100k on a local setup

it never did they just priced you out to not cannibalize their premium offering

SLI had to die so Jensen could charge $250k for DGX with nvlink.

It was not very good, the only real use for multiple GPUs now is mocal LLMs as toys and they don;t care if you have nvlink or sli and work with multiple GPUs well anyway. For gaming what was the point a 1080ti does everything you need anyway.

on the account that It was basically useless i'm hesitating between "naturally" and "obviously". maybe both is the way to go.

consoomer retards thinking they get 100% more performance on one handdogshit developers unable to code for two gpus on the other handperfect subhuman combo for ending a technology

I've tried it with multiple generations of nvidia GPUs and it always felt like an afterthought that they never properly polished.

It still exists, it just doesn't work for real time workloads

It costs twice as much but doesnt perorm twice as well, and it always had problems with microstutter.

Frametime benchmarks exposed to the masses what SLI/CF users knew. SLI/CF was only good for big FPS avg figures that completely masks the shuttering.

insane latency therefore useless for anything realtime

wouldn't surprise me if people were encouraged to use a secondary GPU for their AI post-processing needs while they rasterize on their primary in the future
