In single VGA card mode, use first the PCIe 2.0 x16_1 slot (blue) for a PCI
Express x16 graphics card to get better performance.
In CrossFireX™ mode, use the PCIe 2.0 x16_1 (blue) and PCIe 2.0 x16_2
(black) slots for PCI Express x16 graphics cards to get better performance.
Use the two PCIe 2.0 x16 slots and the universal PCIe x16 slot for 3-Way
CrossFireX™ mode.
We recommend that you provide sufficient power when running
CrossFireX™ mode. See page 2-32 for details.
If one of the PCIe x1 slots is occupied, the universal PCI Express x16 slot
(black) will downgrade to max. x1 speed.
Connect a chassis fan to the motherboard connector labeled
