    The flexible Asus one will work for slots 1 & 2 with a little slack. I'd be interested to know your results.

    I am aware of hacked drivers, but I havent read anywhere of anyone having success with hacked sli drivers on this board yet. Did I miss something?

    i haven't either. i'm gonna give it a try!

    my 2nd 7900gt should be here hopefully by the end of this week. else, i won't be able to try for another 1 plus week as i will be gone on business.

    also, any word yet of unlocking the mult with a future bios revision? I'd really like to use my 8x mult to see what the max of this board is w/o having to use crystalcpuid (which i can't seem to get to work properly).
