Think it's going to be a 3 slot

Cool, thanks but can someone else confirm this.

That has the same pci layout as my p6td, with the 2 pci slots inbetween the pci-e slots. From my research this is neither 2 or 3 slot layout and somewhere inbetween so you cannot use ek bridges (aquacomputer bridge may also be the same). Your best bet is some sli tube fittings like these http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=WC-026-FO&groupid=962&catid=1529&subcat=2059. Most wc part makers make some tube fittings like this.

Would you mind posting a pic when you get everything set up mate? I've got a couple of Asus 480's and I'm planning the same.

Hmm just seen this and seems the dual 3 slot bridge should do it.

That should be wednesday when I do it.

Thanks guys or the other thing I could do is place some tubing between them instead of the bridge.

Tubing be the best thing for that board great spacing for on air pants for wc

My earlier post was for the adjustable sli connections oc stock ek bridges will not fit your board

Actually surprised ek don't make one for this lay out as I've seen it on a few boards

I thought they usually copied and pasted them from the manufacturer website? :confused:

Yeah, and they missed the completely normal step of actually reading what they copied. I like OcUK, but trash like this on their website is what sucks.
