well, my cards are only dual slot coolers. their placement of a few of the expansion slots on the board just doesnt make any logical sense.
Take the pcie-1x slots for example - Surely the first one would have been a better placed above the first PCi-Ex 16x slot and the second 1x after the first white PCI-Ex-16x slot because if youre running SLi or Crossfire, not only do you render the 1x pcie slots totally useless cuz you block them, but you make it so you cant fit anything in there without using a 1x pcie extension which can be a little difficult to get here in the UK.
My SB-Z is currently squeezed in under my second 680 but im gonna have to move that and plug it into one of the white 8x pci-ex slots. because theres no 1x slot that isnt obstructed by a GPU....
the lower 680 is going to be sitting so close to the bottom of the case, i wonder if its gonna receive enough airflow.
