Not to happy with these cards as they are too damn thick. Its impossible to put them in 3-way or 4-way with my Rampage V Extreme as they are sandwiched so tight that the first fans on cards 1 and 2 can not spin. I have to rig it up with fexible cables as that allows me to pull them apart, but now the screw holes dont even lign up in the back of the case. The 3- way bridge just pulls them in so tight smack dab up against each other. This is a big disapointment. The only thing I can see doing is removing the middle and bottom cards back plates which is rediculous.

Before I realized fans werent able to move:

Tried that and found out it didnt work, only would SLI 2 of them, you can also see the clear peace acting as a spacer. There are 2 of those wedged in, they are the protective ends on the display port cables i ordered for these.
