If you put 2 gpu's on the Asus they run at 8x not 16x

you need to look at the Gigabyte UD7 if you want both cards on 16x lanes dude.

TTL, maybe some day you could do a test to see if it really matters alot if dual-cards are on 8x or 16x..... I remember reading some articles in the past, it didn't matter that much then. Just an idea :> Cheers.
