Hey Guys, i want to do SLI for my GTX 680 but the first PCIE 16x SLOT damage during shipping (my motherboard ASUS Z9PE-D8 WS 4-way sli support), so i decided to put my first card in 2nd PCIE 16x slot and it works just fine ..
so my question here is, where i should put my second card if i want to SLI them.. is it the 3rd PCI 16x Slot or the last.. ??
thanks
 
So looking at the board, use the second blue slot for the first 680. If you have room at the bottom of the case use the fourth blue slot, this will give a nice gap between the cards for air. If you cant fit it in the fourth blue slot then the third blue one will be ok, it will make the primary card run a few degrees hotter since there is another card stacked right under it blocking some air flow.
