Default can I install HD Core PCIe in Slot 3

Yikes I have a 1.1 mac pro 2006 and it has a ATI Radeon X1900 XT video card (Apple Official upgrade from standard card) with dual-link DVI connectors, so you can run two 30" screens

Even though instructions say HD Core PCIe goes in slot 2 can I install it slot 3 or slot 4
Any danger?
Amy finally any tips you can give me on installing these long cards with least amount of force


Physically in the Mac they are:

Slot 4
Slot 3---------------------------Proposed Slot for HD Core PCIe
ATI Radeon Fan Slot 2
ATI Radeon X1900 Slot 1


thanks in advance
david

Thumbs up Re: can I install HD Core PCIe in Slot 3

Yes you can do this. Blackmagic Design Video Cards

I know you are not using a DeckLink card. The information is still applicable.
