needs to go in the bottom slot. it says master right under the slot itself. also there is a little dummy card that came with the board. that should be placed in the top slot in order to get the full 16x. even if you put your card in the master slot without the dummy card it will still run at 8x

You need to add some sexy pics.



Find some more good shots for the first post to make the thread more awesome.

I know TripleC has one of these boards at the moment, I'll link him to it next time he's around.
