slot, and the other graphics card to PCIE4 slot. Make sure that the cards
are properly seated on the slots.
Step2. Connect the auxiliary power source to the PCI Express graphics card.
Please make sure that both power connectors on the PCI Express graph-
ics card are connected. Repeat this step on the three graphics cards.

connector of the graphics card that is inserted to PCIE1 slot.
