if a single card has 3 slots then you need 6 expansion slots plus one slot (or not idk) between them...it sounds like that setup will take up all of your expansion slots. boards will multiple pcie ports have the same spacing between them im just thinking it will be a tight fit...i shall look for reviews on these cards i want to see a pics of two of these bad boys :whistle:

I just realized that graphics cards are turned upside down in the case and my previous concern about it interfering with the I/O shield is not viable. I hate having a motherboard turned upside down with a BTX mobo. So my current GTX 460 is with the fan turned up where as in the new build the fan is turned down. So i will just fin a board with to spaces between the PCI express lanes.
