what graphics cards are u guys using

AMD 7970 2GB 850 core 1200 mem on a alienware laptop
 
have a R9 290 tri-x OC from Sapphire, it can do all i want in games
 
GTX780 Phantom GLH
 
2 x Evga GEFORCE GTX 770 SUPERCLOCKED ACX 4GB.
 
Are you referring the toe SATA ports on the mobo?

If so yes, the GFX card does go over the Sata ports on the MOBO, but I just plugged in the SATA cables before I put the 970 in.

-Btw I am swapping cases here soon to a NZXT H440.

Yeah after I thought about this I realized I kinda derped.


I don't use the USB 3 plug-in from the case due to the fact the cable was messed up from my last MOBO and it would not fit into this one.

What I have done though in preperation for a case swap is move my Video card down a PCE-E slot in order to reveal the Single Slot plug in on the mobo, along with the USB 3 header I will be using in my next case.
 
So it goes over the usb 3 if you use it on the top slot? Thats bit stupid:/ i will need to look for low profile usb 3 header or something...

Yep, that's a good score as I see it,.............
 
Still using my Gigabyte GTX Titan from when I first brought it at first release and it still runs well.
It functions even better with newer Z97 system I upgrade to a while ago from my older Z68 system last year.

Despite almost two years already my Titan is still outputting good performance and I can easily keep with it in my system for another year before upgrading to something better.
 
right now Zotax GTX 660 TI in SLI but very soon 2 GTX 970 in sli:clap:
 
still running a 6950 (unlocked to 6970) and a GTX 570 on my main rigs. 550m, 750m on my laptops
 
Well im not using it at the moment.1 More day and ill have it 280x Vapor 3Gb

Gpus dont overlap that port. Just plug in your usb 3.0 fp connectors.
