In single VGA card mode, use the PCIe 3.0/2.0 x16_1 slot (yellow) for a PCI Express
x16 graphics card to get better performance.

We recommend that you provide sufficient power when running CrossFireX™ mode.
•
Connect a chassis fan to the motherboard connector labeled CHA_FAN1-2 when
using multiple graphics cards for better thermal environment.
