Nice to see your build log over here  Been following it over on OCN.

magic, maybe a PCI-E Splitter/Riser lmao

Hey guys! Thanks for the interest! Nice to see people from ocn here too!

 

Yes I am a using a special riser in conjunction with an Intel chipset function that enables bifurcation, splitting the pcie lanes from x16 to x8x8

Don't mind the fittings too much just testing everything out still

Thats a tight ass fit.  Could you elaborate a bit on the Intel chip and special riser?  Sounds very intriguing. (sp)?

Well its not really a special Intel chip. It's just a 4790k. Its a chipset feature though that is enabled through the bios (however only Asrock seems to be the only manufacture who has it enabled z77 z97 and x99 has been tested on hardforum.) The riser is from ameri-rack this one specifically.

Aaahhh..  Did not read chipset function, just intel chip. Which i'd never heard of. Thanks for explaining. Will be handy to know if one would decide on a dual gpu itx build in the future.

 

This makes the asrock x99 itx board even more compelling. I actuallynstrayed away from my normal line of itx builds just to have sli....
