I'm one of the unfortunate souls who have been sadly watching their SLI rigs become less and less relevant as game developers shun SLI support since it requires a significant time to develop and maintain.

As I'm getting pretty hyped up for CK3 I started wondering if I should expect it to run smoothly with max settings on my two gtx 770s.

Official SLI support has become rarer and rarer over the years. And considering Paradox games are usual CPU limited, not GPU limited, true SLI support is probably a low priority if anyone even remembers some people still use it. I honestly don't think any of the newer Paradox games have official SLI profiles. I remember some people did use the SLI profile for Dragon Age Origins for CK2 and EU4. But that's a very good answer in 2020.

I found this SLI bug for IR that has been open for almost a year and a half. Considering that still isn't fixed, I wouldn't hold your breath. Even if that a minor bug, SLI can degrade performance instead of improving it in some instances. Your GTX 770s do meet the minimum listed specs so you may be able to run the game, but almost certainly not at max settings.

They do meet minimum specs but not optimal specs. Meh my aging beast can still run some new games surprisingly well so I'll hope for the best

This might not be helpful, but I found it interesting nonetheless because I find it surprising, you can still find pages of these cards available for new on newegg.

Who would willingly buy for new a card that released nearly 8 years ago?
