PCIE Disable Jumper

For the ease of troubleshooting Multiple Video Cards, or testing individual Video Card’s Overclocking, EVGA has implemented 3 Jumpers you can use to disable individual PCIE slots. You don’t need to remove any of your video cards but simply disable the slot the particular card is in and the Motherboard will treat it as invisible.

The PCIe disable jumpers are located right beside the 24pin ATX Connector. In default shipping configurations, all slots are enabled with the jumpers in the left position. From top to bottom, PCIE slots 1,2,3 respectively. To disable a PCIE Slot, move the jumper over to the right position.

Example: Remove the Jumper cap of JPE2, PCIE Slot 2 is disabled while the rest are enabled. The PCIE Disable Function can also be extended onto the ECP discussed later on.

Do this when the PC is turned off, NOT when it is running!

Voltage Measure Point

The motherboard is equipped with eight voltage measure point pad. You can use a voltmeter to measure the voltage you want to know.
