Title: Headers under 3rd GPU slot causing GPU to not fit Post by: Shenrox on February 03, 2014, 06:19:27 PM Hi Guys,
Anyone else maybe had this problem. I have a GA-X58A-UD3R mobo (http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3449#ov (http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=3449#ov)) I can't install the last GPU because it's pushing down on the headers under it. Has anyone maybe experienced the same problem and solved it. Thanks in advance Title: Re: Headers under 3rd GPU slot causing GPU to not fit Post by: kalus on February 03, 2014, 06:29:57 PM I can't install the last GPU because it's pushing down on the headers under it. In tight motherboard designs like this, I only leave the power switch connected to simplify the connections (e.g. no LED, no speaker)Has anyone maybe experienced the same problem and solved it. Sometimes i am able to thread the connection cleverly through the video card cover/heatsink - there is a lot of hollow space in the card to work in and around. If i'm unable to do this, then bending the power switch pins also allows me to connect the power switch while accomodating a cumbersome card. btw, there is a 'mining' subforum for hardware related threads and questions.
