Hi guys & girls,
Another noob question here
I'm up to installing my graphics card (Palit GTX 1070) onto the motherboard (Z270-AR), and I'm wondering: can I use the 2nd (down from CPU) PCI-e slot for the single GPU?
The motherboard manual states them all as being 16x1 slots, and I know that if I had 2 GPU's (which I don't) they would be 8x1 + 8x1 regardless. But the manual doesn't say I should use the top slot first... The only indicator I have is that the top slot is coloured grey while the other 2 are coloured black. For the RAM the manual said to use the grey RAM slots first.
Can anyone advise?
