LOLNot sure if this helps nor if this is accurate information but this is one of many items what I read/viewed and led me toward the Classifed 3x....
 
     During the moderators monalog he infers, says that you can isolated my words the PCIe lanes.  Thinking as noted way to I.D. bad GPU prior to disconnecting from system (think water cooling I did)....my electrician in me... isolate and fix...  
 
     The second is for the 4x...
 
 
Big%20smile   Take this all with a grain of salt and I'll note not sure the rating this site has.  But One of the sites I hit before I pulled the trigger on the EVGA board.  I am new so let me know if I did this correctly, and if I broke any rules....Angry  
 
     This was pulled from T. D site....?  Broken%20Heart

what i believe he meant by isolation is that you don't have to put the pgus next to each other so that they have room the breathe thus reducing you temps. this motherboard is large enough and the slots are placed so you can do that.

i like the easy troubleshooting with the gpus hit a button and you disable a pci-e lane. this really helps you find out which gpu is the culprit.

watching that really made we want to learn how to overclock!

i wonder since you can fit 3x gtx 285 and a 9500 gt (9500 dedicated physics gpu) can you put 3x 5870 + 1 smaller ati card for the same result.

the answer is probably no but since ati doesn't have any cards with physx on them. but it never hurts to ask

nvidia definatly had the right idea with physx too bad ati hasn't followed suit
