I have (finally) my new computer whith the Gigabyte Ga-X48 DQ6 Motherboard.
But, unless the MB has 3 PCIe 1x slots and 2 PCIe 16 x slots , I have problems to get the NX-cards in the system.
The problems are:
The main board can only be place in the second 16x slot, this because the first PCIe 1x slot, the Memory modules block the card.
The videocard (asus 8600GT 512Mb silent) is placed in the first 16xslot and takes two slots, so the second PCIe 1 slot is coverd by the videocard.
The thirth PCIe 1x slot, can only be just whith the expansion board. The Main board is to long and the I get problems whith the heatpipe and the SATA connector.
The second PCIe 16x slot is OK for use the Main board.
So the only contiguration is:
The mainboard in the second PCIe 16 slot, and the expansion board in the first or thirth PCIe 1x slot.
BUT: can I put the mainboard in a 16X slot????
Here, you can find the layout of the board
