I want to run the Asus WS Z390 board with two graphics cards but can't determine the slot spacing to pick a Nvlink bridge.  Also, the product page suggests a two card configuration using the 1st and 3rd 16 pin PCI-e slots but they look too widely spaced for any Nvlink bridge that I've seen.  Anyone dealt with this board yet and know what I'm up against?

The first and third is a 4 slot bridge. You should be able to find an NVLink bridge with that spacing. They should come in 2, 3, and 4 slot
