    This really shows the power of SLI for pure graphic benchmarking. It's a shame that SLI gaming support is all but lost forever.

    Here's my M18xR2 GPU benches: https://www.3dmark.com/compare/fs/26323934/fs/25466379/fs/16862474/fs/19775399/fs/4002945

    SLI truly was awesome. So we are only getting closer to the original SLI performance with these single cards. But with 2000+ series we at least get RT, DLSS, etc.

    My AW 18: https://www.3dmark.com/compare/fs/26958332/fs/26616944/fs/4087150

    Of course we need to break 20k+ in single card: https://www.3dmark.com/fs/7104420

    @Baddemichl already did P5200 and RTX 5000 both are faster than 980M SLI score above but they are less practical to install

    Hey all, wanted to let you know if your not tracking. This forum, NBR is set to shut down permanently at the end of the month. As a temporary stop gap measure, I've created a subreddit on Reddit to get info out when a successor is established. I've linked it below. If you don't use reddit, you can bookmark it to get updates if you check back periodically.

    https://www.reddit.com/r/NotebookReview?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

    Right now, as much as possible, we're trying to maintain the integrity of the community. There appears to be at least two efforts which unfortunately may fracture the community causing it to split off. There's more posts about it in the off topic section of you'd like to check them out to see where the community may be heading.

    Hope to see you all in the next chapter of the NBR community. See you on the other side old friends!

    A few of us have already moved to https://efgxt.net/. [name is placeholder]

    I posted a couple of threads in the m18x section but hopefully with time we'll fill it up

    Yea I believe that to be the main community driven and coordinated effort. The other being a single person driven entity.

    Yea I kinda look at it like posi traction in a car, SLI is posi, 2 gpu cards is limited slip and 1 card is open differential, and depending on tire quality will get best 1/4 mile times
