| 1279221 | 2012-06-03 21:57:00 | Ahh, well you know now that they aren't. Yeah, my new mobo says it can have quad SLI but only 3 PCI-Ex16 slots and 1 PCI-Ex1. | ChazTheGeek (16619) | ||
| 1279222 | 2012-06-03 23:15:00 | I figured pcie 1x slots were for other things such as network cards. That's because they are. Pci-e 1x graphics cards aren't exactly common. The fact you see people cutting up pci-e 16x cards to make them work should tell you that. |

| 1279223 | 2012-06-04 01:49:00 | lol could you imagine somone wanting quad sli and cutting up there amazing 680 to fit in the pcie 1x slot. | Slankydudl (16687) | ||
| 1279224 | 2012-06-04 01:52:00 | No, that..that is blasphemes. Terrible. Do people really do that, they better not. | ChazTheGeek (16619) | ||
| 1279225 | 2012-06-04 02:48:00 | Id hope only for a very low powered card... a 680 would be soooo rediculiously bottle necked on pcie 1x | Slankydudl (16687) | ||
| 1279226 | 2012-06-04 04:08:00 | Ha ha yeah :nerd:. All that power and only can work at a slower 1x mode :eek::eek: Dude, I don't even want to think about it.:waughh: | ChazTheGeek (16619) | ||
| 1279227 | 2012-06-04 06:49:00 | The bandwidth difference between PCI & PCI-e is worth considering IMO | KarameaDave (15222) | ||
| 1279228 | 2012-06-04 06:58:00 | Change the motherboard. and the box, psu, ram ..... and possible cpu :p PCIx isn't that soundcards, network cards, serial cards etc .. |
