I wonder when the Linux drivers will be out. I'm running dual 1070s powering a single Dell 5K on my Arch Linux desktop machine and it's amazing.

Serious question- what benefit do you get out of this? I had an SLI setup with Linux for awhile as well, before realizing that the second GPU was never being tapped into at all. It's recognized, and is getting power, but it's wholly under-utilized (if at all).

From everything I've found, Linux doesn't benefit from SLI nearly as much Windows can.

I've used several multi-GPU (up to 8x K40) Linux machines, and if your application can provide enough GPU work (say ML/AI, or physics simulations, etc.) they scale perfectly. For gaming, I don't know, but could be GP is doing non-gaming stuff.

Probably freeciv or openTTD, but on medium settings.
