I am pretty new to this and ended up getting a motherboerd with 4 slots for GPU's but when I started assembling it I realised that the 7950's are so big there physically isn't enough room to get a third card in there. Is there a solution to this. techbytes posted something about a riser cable?

I have some new 1x to 16x cables if you need them. So make yourself some LTC and we'll trade. ;) tb Title: Re: buying these parts (second opinion wanted) Post by: cooltobe on May 02, 2013, 02:47:02 PM does anyone knows for sure if the 3 cards will fit without risers ?

You might have problem fitting one where the 3 USB connections are. I couldn't use that slot with my board because of that. Plus, even if you do, you will have two cards brushing against each other. tb |
