• In single VGA card mode, use the PCIe 2.0 x16_1 slot (blue) for a PCI Express x16

graphics card to get better performance.

• PCIe x1 slot shares the bandwidth with PCIe x16_2 slot. Due to CrossFireX™ limitation,

DO NOT use the PCIe x1 slot when you install two CrossFireX™ graphics cards on both

the PCIe x16 slots to set up a CrossFireX™ cofiguration. To disable the PCIe x1 slot,

refer to the Onboard Devices Configuration section in the BIOS for details.

• We recommend that you provide sufficient power when running CrossFireX™ mode.

See page 1-27 for details.

• Connect a chassis fan to the motherboard connector labeled CHA_FAN1 or CHA_FAN2

when using multiple graphics cards for better thermal environment.
