Multiple graphics cards installation recommendation
Important
y For a single PCIe x16 expansion card installation with optimum performance, using
the PCI_E1 slot is recommended.
y The PCI_E3 slot will only run PCIe 3.0 x2 speed when a M.2 SATA storage is installed
in M.2 slot (M2_1).
y The PCI_E3 slot will disable when a M.2 PCIe module is installed in M.2 slot (M2_1).
y When adding or removing expansion cards, always turn off the power supply and
unplug the power supply power cable from the power outlet. Read the expansion
card’s documentation to check for any necessary additional hardware or software
changes.
