I have 2 5870s, on the X58 Classified MOBO do I put them in the first two red slots from the CPU or do I put one in the first, skip one and put the second card in the third red slot?  I have no other cards at this time.  Thanks

the first and second would be better if I'm not mistaken, but you can try first and third and see if you see a difference.

Can you do that with the Crossfire bridge? Or do bridges now all support 3 cards?
