Can't fit 4 10.5 inch GPUS

[Asiel]

I got this mainly for 4 GPU use... 10.5inch cards.
I can't fit a 4th GPU in the last slot. The System panel connector (20-8 pin PANEL) get in the way with the chassis connectors connected to the pins. (reset, power, hard drive light etc)
It won't fit all the way into the pci slot.
Note:Refer to manual, section 1-9, for Layout contents #18

Anyone encounter this?

You need to mod at the very least the last card to a single slot solution in order to get 4 cards in. Most people mod all of their cards to single slot solution.

sorry about double post... was lagging bad when I first tried.

Thanks for info to single slot mod...
Not sure if that's my solution, a bit much for me.

My maximus v extreme is the same way. To get the fourth card installed you will have to disconnect the Q connector and anything plugged into the usb headers and use the start button on your motherboard.

If they are Nvidia cards, then you can't get 4xSLI anyways.

Oh but you most certainly can.

Why so? It's not very cost effective for sure, but it is possible...
