Hello, how are you?
I have a few questions about the EVGA Z97 Classified board:
I am thinking about changing my board.
My current board does not have a good layout for SLI and Crossfire. The spacing of the PCI 16x slots is really tight.
I am thinking about the Z97 classifiied.
I considered upgrading to X99, but the price of the CPU and DDR4 memory turns me off.
I already have a good 1150 CPU and 16GB DDR3-2400 G.Skill TridentX CL10 ram.
My questions mainly are:
- How is the PCIe Spacing for 2 GPU setups?
Can I space them with GPU one on slot 1 and GPU 2 on slot 4?
- Is a crossfire or sli setup running dual x16 through the PLX PEX8747 faster than a standard Z97 board running dual x8 from the CPU?
- How is the overclocking ability of the board?
- And finally, what are your general thoughts on the board?
Thank you for your help.
Cheers!
