and it has a dud pci-e ? what do you mean a dud ?
does your video card not work in it ?
because. i might be wrong.. but reading thru my manual and of course with all xfire/sli boards the primary slot is the one next to the cpu.

this baord may not work if you put it into the 2nd slot.. i doubt thats true but it is possible.

also notice there is a jumper thats been removed on the motherboard right above the primary pci-e slot that says 'GPU Select' odd.... i wonder if that needs to be there to run the video card in the 2nd slot ???


it is possible, although unlikely that if you have a bad slot the extra power and chipset cycles could now be directed at the NB allowing a higher FSB.9yes i know an unused pci/pci-e slot is not using anything, its just a thought :\ )

so explain the dud comment and which slot do you have the card in ?
If i have my X1900XT in the orange PCI-E slot nearest the cpu then the pc wont boot, it will power on but wont post. It boots fine when my card is in lower black slot.

The board is unmodded and does 450FSB as pic.

Im going to look for that jumper...
