Hi Raja, the card is legacy PCI, not PCIe

In that case, your options are limited unless you go with a board that has both PCI and the kind of layout you need. Or, it's time to move with the flow of things and reluctantly purchase a PCIe based soundcard.

the LK does have PCI slots, there are in fact 2 of them. the one nearest the edge will be blocked by the 2nd GTX680, the middle one though is not. So my worry is will it be ok to put it there in between the 2 GPUs

I know they are there, but its a question of whether or not you are happy with the card there - which is why you are asking in the first place.
You will need to provide crossflow. The rest, can't say if the cards will be happy or not. The reason I suggested what I did is because layouts suit x1 slots for expansion more than they do PCI as you are finding out...

Thanks Raja.. This really has been my struggle since PCI-e has been introduced. I find a mobo I like with the right features and then realize that PCI location on the board is not optimal. It's wasn't really that big of a deal before since I usually just want a single GPU, only now that I have a chance to get 2 GTX680s at a ridiculous bargain am I bugged by this again.

Haha I hear you. THere are budget soundcards out there at PCeX1. I guess you can try with the card sandwiched - I don't see what you have to lose as you're low on options with that config...

Asus QFan chassis fan minimum too high!
Hi,
I have two ASUS P8Z77-V_LK boards and really like using Asus QFan to control the CPU and chassis fans.
The problem is the bios wont allow you to set the minimum of the chassis fans less then 60% which is just too high for fans that have a maximum speeds of say 2000 RPMs.
Is it at all possible to request a customized BIOS or am I forced to use a software solution like SpeedFan?
Thank You.
How is running crossfire on this card? Good spaceing? Or heat problems? Any advices? Considering crossfire 7970 and R9 280X...
Edit:
This card = ASUS Maximus V Extreme...

Anyone remember the trick to get Hynix MFR sticks to boot@Cas12 on Asus Z77 boards? Setting tWCL to 9 or 10 isn't working.

Another question:
With my overclocked (stabel) machine, from time to time I have sudden shutdowns, can happen even if the machine is idle. Need to remove power to get it to boot again. I am NOT running latest bios.
Anyone else have had this happen?

Both my Maximus v Gene boards had a problem where it would intermittently detect an audio jack had been unplugged/plugged into the rear jack. Well, the problem gets less intermittent and progressivley worse with age (not even a year old yet)...MY MAXIMUS V GENE NOW DETECTS AN AUDIO JACK CHANGE 10 TIMES A SECOND! Needless to say it is broke, had to disable HD audio and buy a sound card...no I'm not waiting 2-months again for an RMA just to be sent a Z87 Pro motherboard in the end...WTF!
I chose this board over your competitors exactly for the audio solution on it....that was the deal breaker and now you just broke the deal.

Does it ever shock anyone else when your hear someone use Darwin's "survival of the fittest" to justify genocide?
is there a known problem with the Sabertooth Z77 TUF and the 2nd PCie slot? I have many known working GPU's aka graphics cards but whenever I try crossfire the 2nd slot just isn't recognized. I can put raid card etc in the 2nd slot and it works.....Bizarre!! I'm using an old Antec P190 with the two built in power supply they should be up to the job.
