Try this one. Your computer will never have a bottleneck again.

I always got the impression that SLI pays off when there are more pixels. If you have triple screen 4K, most tests show that’s where SLI really makes a difference.  I saw an article about 8k with 1080ti SLI and it made a very noticeable difference.  So in P3Dv4 if you are pushing some extra pixels I bet you see a solid improvement.  For texture loading and autogen I bet it doesn’t do much. 

3x 1920x1080 and texture loading is quicker.

As I use terrain , clouds cast shadows icw buildings, vegetation and objects receive shadows it certainly makes a big difference.

LOL... rumor has it when they were testing this setup with P3Dv4.3 it was stutter free and FPS high but the blurries were terrible.

I am using 2x 1080ti cards and humm , I cant not tell you what the benefits are one or two but I have a smooth running home built simulator, Along whit the I7-8700k and asus formula x 350 mb all is great ,No micro-stutters on approach , I am in and out of KLAX or KSAN whit no problems at all . I am set @ 30 fps . but its all you need whit this set up and the detail in the scenery never look this good whit one gtx 1080ti card , Aging I cant be more specific than that sorry , but I well say this if SLI is not working in P3D V4.3 I am never going to give up my two cards .

I see the benefit of having 2x 1080Ti SLI in conditions that used to slow a single card down such as a mix of complex aircraft, scenery and lots of overcast/undercast.  None of that slows it down.  About the only thing that it finds hard to swallow is the GMCS in the PMDG 777-300ER.  I use a frame rate lock of 24 and animation is a smooth as silk.

You want SLI on a 4k rig.

SLI will help when you need more FILL RATE in the sim. All these things requires (and thus will benefit from SLI) an high fill rate:

- 4K screen resolution. Or multiple 1080p screens. And multiple 4K screens, of course...

- Higher quality Antialiasing modes

- Lots of transparencies in the scenery, like glass windows, multiple glass windows, cloud layers, multiple cloud layers, smoke, flames, lots of special effects, etc.
