Looking at getting myself 2 EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Super clocked cards for my pc
I have the new MAXIMUS VII FORMULA From Republic of Gamers Mother Board.
A single Card takes up the following Dimensions:
Height: 4.376in - 111.15mm
Length: 10.5in - 266.7mm
Width: Dual Slot

My Question is will 2 of these cards fit on this motherboard without any problems ?
Will I see any loss of performance on the second card ? and is SLI worth it and if so am I making a good choice of card to SLI with ?
Thanks

There is enough space in between, as you can see there is also a PCIex1 slot in between and you could use that aswell. You could put 3 of those gfx cards on that motherboard.

You have 2 x PCIe 3.0 X 16 slots for Max possible bandwidth at the moment and they are spaced far enough to not cause any cooling issues so you should be fine.

Yeah fair enough but those 2 x 16 PCI 3 slots are the first and second slot are they not?
So wont the first graphics card take up the second PCI slot forcing me to use the bottom slot
