Default GTX 680 DirectCUII SLI Question
Hey guys! I was looking at some DirectCUII's in SLI and wondered if there was any room left for a Sound Card?

Especially a ASUS Xonar Essence, I would imagine there would be no room, but maybe someone here has made a similar build and can shed some light on this for me :) Thank you for any responses I get -Fingercramps

Depends on the MB, if you have a pcie x1 above your GFX's pcie then yes, if not IDK. I also have done a dual card tri-cooler ( 2x Asus 6970 DCII's) and wouldnt again, there dam tight.

680 DCII is dual slot.

It all depends on your board layout.
What motherboard have you got and what case too?
I'm thinking about SLI'ing my 670 but the intake on the lower card will be tight against the psu. :(

Unless I miss one, the 3 models of GTX-680DC ( O, 2T) are all tripple slots
