Gigabyte motherboard - Will there be enough space to fit those 2?

[hents1230]

Hello!

I'm planning to buy XFX RADEON HD 6850 Black Edition and Killer 2100. Will those 2 fit without any space problem[not blocking when inserting another card]?

Thanks in advance.

I think all multi-slot video cards actually go "downward", therefore it might block slot 2, but slot 1 should be OK.

BTW, unless you already own the Killer 2100, I wouldn't bother with one; if you want better FPS I think putting that money in an even better video card would be wiser.

Thanks for the answer! I'm not experting Killer 2100 to give more fps, just want to try it
And those 2 slots under GPU will be unused so I think everything works out Thanks!

If you want to "try" something out, get an SSD if you don't already have one. Even entry-level ones are better than mechanical HDD for OS boot drives.

That 6850 will block the upper pci slot, and you'll want the other pci slot clear for air-flow.
The pci-e x1 will be fine for use.

Thank you for the answer. Yes, I only need PCI-E x1 for KILLER 2100.
