yes because they are both 16x while the 2nd and 4th are only 8x

its funky, it goes like.. GPU1 and GPUx = 16x16, X being one of the 3rd PCIe slots. but when you mix it up with say 3 GPUs its now 16x8x8. or even physx will drop it down to 16x8x8

I was thinking what specific PSU that would have 9x 6pin PCI-E connectors?

I use corsair HX1000w 1000watt psu. That's with 2 9800gtx+, 1 ssd, 2 2tb hdd, two radiators(rx360 and rx120), pump, two waterblocks, and 5 delta fans without any trouble. Let's see what other people might suggest

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817256054 although it only has 4 8pin and 4 6pin. Additionally, you can use the 6pin to molex adapter that comes with the gpus and power it using molex connectors from the psu
here's another one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817256038 has 6 6pin and 3 8pin connector
