Hi, im doing my first build and want to know whether my motherboard (Asus M5A97 LE R2.0 ATX AM3+ Motherboard) has two PCI express slots. Im going to use a single graphics cardnfor now but i hope to do some crossfire action later on. I know the type of slot can have a effect on speed amd I cant work out whether it has two PCI express slots or not. Can one of you guys work it out?

Thanks in advance!
 


Here are the specs for your MB: https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A97_LE_R20/#specifications

It has 4 PCIe slots. However, for Xfire, the second X16 slot will be reduced to X4 mode, which will slow down video performance a bit.
