Multiple graphics cards installation recommendation
Important
y
If you install a large and heavy
graphics card, you need to use
a tool such as MSI Gaming
Series Graphics Card Bolster to
support its weight and to prevent
deformation of the slot.
y
When adding or removing
expansion cards, always turn off
the power supply and unplug the
power supply power cable from the
power outlet. Read the expansion
card’s documentation to check for
any necessary additional hardware
or software changes.
