Here's a thought: Does anybody know if you can unscrew the blank faceplate
to the MegaMonster, and put it in the PCI slot that is also shared with an
ISA slot in contention for that particular faceplate slot on the case?

(ie on a MB with 1 AGP, 4 PCI and 3 ISA, where 1 slot is PCI or ISA but not
both because of the 7 slot maximum on the PC case)

If the MegaMonster is thin enough (no large heatsinks or fans), and if the
Motherboard in question does not shut off one of the two slots if the other
is filled (I am unsure about this), then this would be a great way to get
SLI without having to sacrifice an extra PCI slot.

Any Thoughts?
