could someone tell me if

z68-gd65

would allow me to fit 2 sapphire 6950 2gb dirt3 cards and a xonar dx sound card,

they all require pci e slots , the board has 3 but looks like 2 are close together...

Sound card could go in the very top 1X slot.

Then the 6950's will go into the the two Blue 16X slots.

ok, just cause i dont understand, x16 and x1 has to do with speed i assume?

will putting sound card in the x1 have any effect on its performance

Nope, a pcie soundcard will work fine in any pcie slot, ive had my DX in them all. Im currently running my setup like stulid describes above.
