2.5.1.2 Installing Three SLITM-Ready Graphics Cards

Step 1. Install the identical 3-Way SLITM-ready graphics cards that are NVIDIA® certified because different types of graphics cards will not work together properly. (Even the GPU chips version shall be the same.) Each graph- ics card should have two goldfingers for the 3-Way SLI Bridge connector. Insert one graphics card into PCIE1 slot, another graphics card to PCIE2 slot, and the other graphics card to PCIE4 slot. Make sure that the cards are properly seated on the slots.

Step3. Align and insert ASRock 3-Way SLI Bridge Card to the goldfingers on each graphics card. Make sure ASRock 3-Way SLI Bridge Card is firmly in place.
