  1. Hello! Regarding this note: "11-6-2013: Recommend purchase a GTX660 or GTX560Ti over a GTX750/GTX650 series if PCI space is tight. The GTX750/GTX650-series has the unusual requirement of 256MB+32MB of PCI space making them more difficult to accomodate. This differs to the other NVidia cards that require 128MB+32MB+16MB." What Nvidia video card shorter than 8.25" in length has the smaller PCI memory block requirement? Both the GTX 660 and GTX 560 Ti are 9" long or more. GTX 750, GTX 650 are short, but have the large memory block requirement. Equipment: Thinkpad T430, i5 3230M, QM77 chipset, 4GB main memory, integrated Intel HD4000 graphics only, Intel Centrino 2200 wireless. Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit. Cooler Master Elite 110 mini-ITX case (this is the source of the max 8.25" video card length problem) PE4L-EC060A v2.1b I was playing around with a GTX 750 Ti card that I used in another build, and was able to get the set up to work as follows: boot laptop, power on PE4L/GTX750, then attach DVI video cable to GTX 750 Ti card. If I booted laptop with graphics card powered up, boot would hang before posting bios. If I turned on video card with cable attached, would get error 12. The GTX 750 Ti card is short, so I could get another one, but I really don't want to deal with either the disconnect/connect cable or DSDT override. I would like the dual screen capability of Nvidia cards. Pricing of used GTX 650 Ti cards (which are short) is perfect for me, but it sounds like I'd have the same memory allocation issue as the GTX 750 Ti? Would removing the wireless card help? Thanks in advance!
