No it's a pcie 2 slot. No you can't use last pcie 3 slot. Nvidia cards need a minimum of 8x for sli. If ur running amd cards then I guess using last pcie 3 slot would be ok.
Yeah... But... Its x1 size...
Asus raid r :E
PCIe 2.0 x2; 240GB; Dual LSI® SandForce SF-2281 controllers; Toshiba® 19nm 16k page size Sync MLC NAND Flash; sequential read/write speed 830/810MB/s; Up to 100,000 4K read/write IOPS*
I like this mb, but the limit of pxi1 size... I dont sure...
Could we install cards x4 size bus in this smalls pcix 1?...
Slots
3 x PCIe 3.0/2.0 x16 (x16 or dual x8 or x8/x4/x4)
1 x mini-PCIe 2.0 x1
3 x PCIe 2.0 x1
And... Does the armor of mb permit this install ?
http://www.ocaholic.ch/modules/xcgal/displayimage.php?pid=43485The img see that asus raid r is more long...
And the last question:
PCIe Bandwidth Comparison (Each Direction)
* PCIe 1.x PCIe 2.x PCIe 3.0
x1 250MB/sec 500MB/sec 1GB/sec
x2 500MB/sec 1GB/sec 2GB/sec
x4 1GB/sec 2GB/sec 4GB/sec
x8 2GB/sec 4GB/sec 8GB/sec
x16 4GB/sec 8GB/sec 16GB/sec
With 2.0 in x1 go to 500 mb/s... Asus raid r can do 800 mb/s if it in x2 pcix... And a good sdd in sata 6 can do 600 mb/s...
I dont sure about all this... But i think something rare options install...
