Every card in my system is on a x16 PCIe riser, and all the motherboards are 890FXA-GD70's
Never had any issues, but then again, I'm using full x16 risers

Do you have to short the pins for the specific board the OP specified, or just "some" boards?
Ah...I tried that on a old P45T-A board a while back. Worked great for the board and then the board died. Think I'll live with the cards in the slots 
found it

I haven't done this personally but others say it works.

Hey folks,
I have 2 of these boards that are happily chugging away with four cards in them, but the cards are sandwiched pretty close together. To get some airflow I'd much rather use some PCIx extenders and get the cards off the board, but no matter what I do, any cards I put on the extenders are not recognized by the OS.
Is anyone using the MSI GDFXA-GD70 motherboard and have cards using extenders on it?
Thanks!

I read in a thread earlier today that sometimes you have to short 2 pins for for them to work. not sure which thread i saw that in though.
