We recommend that you provide sufficient power when running CrossFireX™ or SLI™
mode.
Connect a chassis fan to the motherboard connector labeled CHA_FAN1-4 when
using multiple graphics cards for better thermal environment.
We recommend you connect an EATX 12V_1 cable when running CrossFireX and
SLI.
