Hardware Setup 1. Installing three graphics cards which support 3-W ay SLI technology on PCI Ex- press x16 slots. After three cards installed, SLI Bridge cables are required to connect the golden fingers on the top of these three graphics cards (fig.1). Please note that although you have installed three graphics cards, only the video outputs on the first card (which be installed in PCI_E1 slot) will work.
