You can use a dremel or similar tool to cut them out yourself... and you can drill the holes to put in the screw that holds the card in place with the dremel too.

You want to fit the 4way sli mobo in there but do you realize that if you try to do 4way SLI, you can't do it with 4 dual slot cards because I don't know of any cases that have 8 expansion slots ( I'm sure there are, I just don't know of them).
Just a little heads up.

A case that doesnt have 9 expansion slots, is not intended to have 9 slots, even with modding. I would reccomend you to buy a huge Lian Li Case istead. The A77B is a great example, and its really a beast for the price

You could also buy 2 4870x2s, 2 gtx 295s, or 2 5970s. Thats quad fire/ sli with just two cards and they should use less power and produce less heat. I wouldn't recommend cutting an extra slot (especially in a case like that) and would just buy the two cards. The 800d is also massive so if you have trouble fitting 4 way sli then it might not be worth it.

the PC-P80 supports the Classified x4. You need to have a case with 10 pci brackets in it
