It looks horrible to be honest.

Looks bloody terrible and it overlaps the logo on the cards, their last SLI bridge looked good and works why didn't they just make it HB i'll never know

I actually don't mind the design but I'd agree that it doesn't look good where it overlaps the GPU logos. Surely it wouldn't be that hard to design one that worked!

Oh god another bonehead move done buy MSI, how in the hell did this passed it's clearly wrong plus IMO the MSI SLi bridges look ugly compare to the EVGA ones.

Do EVGA have a high bandwidth bridge?

I think JayzTwoCents in one of his GTX1080 videos said yes EVGA will have HB SLi Bridges.

Nice. Hopefully without the red mesh the classy has. If it matches the FTW etc colour scheme it should look good.

The more I look at the MSI bridge the more it grows on me - aside from covering half the dragon on the cards. It should be full dragon or nothing!

I would say with the EVGA ones i think it would be similar to the ones they have now which IMO there the best looking SLi Bridges around.

Yep up there with the ROG bridges for looks IMO. I just didn't like the EVGA LED logo if I didn't have EVGA hardware. The old MSI bridge didn't look too bad on the cards so maybe there's some new branding/cooler designs coming out from MSI in the GPU market?

To me that was the reason why it's the best looking SLi Bridge cause of the EVGA logo.

I just saw on Twitter from EVGA something cool they have been working on.

Reminds me of this stupid car trend ....

Here is hoping that someone tries for a more classy and elegant design one day.

MSI has gone nuts. Maybe MSI wants to be like nVidia sincd they rake in some money. Hiring kids to do their jobs. Better yet stealing little kids work from art class.
