. 

PCI-E x16 Slots 

These seven PCI-E x16/x8 slots are reserved for graphics cards, and x1/x4 

devices. The bandwidth of the x16 slot is up to 4GB/sec (8GB/sec 

concurrent). The design of this motherboard supports up to Four PCI-E 

graphics cards using NVIDIA’s SLI technology with multiple displays.  
When installing a PCI-E x16 card, be sure the retention clip snaps and locks 

the card into place. If the card is not seated properly, it could cause a short 

across the pins. Secure the card’s metal bracket to the chassis with the screw 

used to hold the blank cover.
