Where did you placed your cards?
GPU1 => PCIE 3.0 x16_1
GPU2 => PCIE 3.0 x16_2
Due to space issue you can install the sound card only in PCIE 3.0 x16_3 - or is this not the case?*if I read the manual correctly, then you would have 16x 8x with the graphics cards and not 16x 16x - which brings only a small loss with it (fps). But maybe I'm wrong... you will see it as soon as you bring up your system.
The lower M.2 slot share the bandwith with the U.2 and use PCH instead of CPU lanes. So the best way should be to install the NVMe on the upper M.2 slot or on the DIMM.2 card. This is what I'm understanding if I read the manual and specifications on the ASUS homepage.
I have my Omega here and will start to install my SLI / VROC in the next days.

The RTX 2080Ti is the first card to actually saturate X8 bandwidth. If your installation cuts one of the cards back to X8 expect to take a 5% or so performance hit.

But a NVLINK bridge (100mm), which is needed for that setup, are not available on the market 😞
The maximum is actually 80mm.
