• In single VGA card mode, use the PCIe 3.0/2.0 x16_1 slot (yellow) for a PCI Express x16 graphics card to get better performance.
•We recommend that you provide sufficient power when running CrossFireX™ mode.
•Connect a chassis fan to the motherboard connector labeled CHA_FAN1/2/3 when using multiple graphics cards for better thermal environment.
•The PCIe x16_2 slot shares bandwidth with PCIe x1_1 and PCIe x2 slots. The default setting is x2 mode. Go to the BIOS Setup to change the settings.
