Out of the many slots on my board, I have a single slot graphics card in one of them.

So what do you use your ones for?
 
PCIe for GTX260
X-FI Xtreme & a cheap GigaLAN NIC as the Railink one on my mobo decided to get arsey with me.
 
Obviously graphics card is in PCIe. Then there's X-Fi in PCI and as not so common addition 3ware 9650SE-8LPML in PCIe.
 
here`s whats filling my slots...

HD4870x2 in PCI-e
Compro E800 TV in PCI-e

SB X-Fi in PCI
Netgear GA311 1gig Nic in PCI
Adaptec 29160n SCSI in PCI
 
Just a graphics card, mobo has 6 usb ports, nic ports, wifi, spdif for sound. What else could you need in a pci slot. Other than a decent sata raid card paired with several ssd drives. But taht's far to expensive.
 
2 4870's
Xonar Essence
Wireless N
What irks me though is that yeah theres so many slots that are totally unusable, you plug in a dual slot gfx card or 2 and you cant use most the other slots, why do they even bother putting them on the board if you cant get to them instead of having 4 slots crammed in you cant quite get to, just put 2 in you can get to /end of rant
