Rampage VI Extreme Encore - PCIe slot spacing for SLI. What is the spacing for the top 2 PCIe x16 slots. I need to determine which NVLink size to purchase so I can run my cards in SLI. I haven't purchased the motherboard yet so I can't just measure the slots with a ruler. Judging from the photos it look like it will require a 4-slot model but I'd like to confirm.

you will be looking for 3-slot. I just had to purchase one coming from the 4-slot (Rampage V edition 10).

I did compare the boards. But you didn't answer the question. Instead of a smart answer how about just an answer, I'd like to know. It works fine for me.

Thank you. Your post read as if you were using it on RVE10, not an upgrade. Sorry to bother you for the explanation, thanks nonetheless.
