Asus P5N-E SLI Graphics card?

[Et3rnalPhate]

I Have this computer with an Asus P5N-E SLI motherboard, and I don't really know much about what parts will fit into it.

My question is how do i figure out what cards will fit into it, is there some special type of slot that it fit into? or will any one just go right in?

I want to find a card that will work great once The Elder Scrolls online, if anyone has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated!!!

Need, CPU, memory, power supply.

Nvidia GTX 660/670 TI are nice mid range cards.

You can get a Q6600 for cheap that will overclock well. 2x2GB RAM and a 650W PSU (at least) from Corsair, XFX or Seasonic, along with any mid to upper-mid range video cards, as suggested by das_stig, and you'll have a very decent gaming rig.
Look at my sig, I can play BF3 maxed out online with 2X MSAA on servers with 32 players or less.

I still don't understand how I would be able to tell that these video cards can be used for my motherboard. I'm not saying I don't believe you, i just want to know if I find a different one, whether or not it will fit.

If you research, you will see that the PCI-E 1, 2 and 3 slots at x16 are all the exact same, (excluding 2.1) but the bandwidth is different. Your motherboard has PCI-E 1, and it is very similar to the board I have as well. You can even use a GTX 780, but that wouldn't run at it's maximum as your system would limit it, which is why we suggested mid-range video cards.

The topic has been discussed numerous times. Just scroll down to the related posts.
