Hey all,
A bunch of us are trying to figure out (as seen in in this thread) if the 2nd SLI slot will work as a PCIe x8 slot when the mobo is set up in SLI mode. If you have an SLI mobo and any non-video-PCIe card, could you do an experiment for us?
The experiment:
1) Put your mobo into SLI mode.
2) Plug your video card in the normal, first, PCIe x16 slot.
3) Plug your other PCIe card in the second PCIe x16 slot.
4) Boot your system.
The big questions are:
1) Does your system boot?
2) Do you have a good video signal?
3) Does the other PCIe card work?
4) When using the other PCIe card (network traffic, IO, etc.), do you maintain clean video corruption?
5) Is your system performance normal?
6) If you answered "yes" to all the above, what mobo do you have?
Thanks a ton,
BoB
