will this game have any problems with SLI?

i'm trying to decide whether i should get this game for pc or console, pc is the obvious choice for the mods of course (although with bethesda titles it's best to wait 2 years before modding the game) but i noticed a very alarming problem rise with my pc. apparently SLI was making my Baldur's Gate 3 crash, disabling fixed the worst crashes in that game but now my pc is weaker after disabling it (2x1080ti's). i want to know if more modern titles will also have similar issues with SLI?

SLI is dead get over it. But this seams to be more like a weak troll/bait thread.

No idea. Does it work with Fallout 4 and Skyrim?

nobody can possibly tell you if it will run or how well until it's actually out and even then you'll have to either buy it to test or find someone that has the same sli setup as you

Buy it in the Microsoft Store, the "Play Anywhere" version, you can play that on X-Box and PC. MS Store version sucks, but this way you can play it however you like.

Considering SLI is defunct I think it's a safe bet that modern titles will have issues with it, yes.

it does work with fallout 4 and skyrim but they are also older titles, i begun getting SLI crashes on Baldur's Gate 3 which is a recent title which makes me suspect that time is already going past my machine.

Both regular and quad SLI ran poor with Skyrim and Fallout i tested it. Game is not out so no idea if it will work. I don't think it will be supported.

I tried to play Fallout 76 with 2x GTX 1070 SLI and it didn't help increasing the FPS, also other profiles used in nvidia inspector didn't help. So i just assume it won't work in Starfield. SLI is dead period!

Then all I could say is maybe. You would be better off asking here:
