If it's a real SLI board with a full 16 lanes per slot, there |

shouldn't be any problem sticking another card in the other 16x slot. |

If however, it shares 16 lanes between both slots, most will give all |

16 to one slot if only one card is installed. |

But only way to tell is to try it, really. It almost certainly won't |

break anything. |
