Video card location on Rampage VI Extreme Encore

[AMG_KC]

Hi all,

Just wanting to confirm, i just upgraded to the named mobo, installed the video card in PCI-E slot 2, and got a warning in the BIOS about it being in the wrong slot.

I moved it to slot 1, but for obvious reasons it looks nicer in slot 2, and its further away from the CPU cooler.

Video card is a Gigabyte RTX2080Ti Gaming OC

CPU is a 10900X

I have an Intel server network card in slot 3 at present, but it was in slot 1 when the video card was in slot 2. The network card is 4x.

Windows 10 PRO 1909 is installed on 2 NVMe Samsung 970 EVO Plus SSDs mounted flat on the board.

Id rather put the video card into slot 2 if itll run the same, it wont be as likely to warm the CPU and it wont cover the flashy looking ROG logo... *

Thanks all 🙂

Yes it does. *

Doesnt seem to make a significant difference, more so just common variance.*
