    The Commando has the following:

    1 - x1 pcie
    2 - x16 pcie
    4 - pci slots

    unless your soundcard is x1 pcie or pci i don't think you can use your soundcard on the commando. the x1 pcie is supposed to be for the bundled supreme fx sound card but can accomodate any x1 pcie device. as usual the pci slot can accomodate legacy pci-e device.

    Anyway to activate it to run at 16x? Im intending to put on the HR03plus for my 8800gtx. It seems like my soundcard will be blocking it.

    If I can run it at 16x on the second lane, den i can easily slot my sound card in one of the middle pci lanes rite?
