You can plug it into the x16 slot, it should work just fine

it is a full size slot, but probably with only x8 pins.聽

Are you saying you only have two PCI-e slots and they're already full? otherwise just show your SSD into the lower x8 slot and it will work fine.聽

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.聽

what are you talking about? plug that bad boy in where you'd plug the 2nd GPU.聽

Also dust that PSU basement off.聽
