HI,
I just purcahsed a TS-1685, and a QM2-4P-384 card.
According to the installation instructions it must be installed in PCIe slot 1. but there is not enough space to install it there - it's to long and will hit the fans.
Can I install the card in slot 3 instead? I have no need for a GPU there.
Best regards
Kenneth

Yes you can install it in the GPU slot.

The instructions that say this must be installed in slot 1 are meant to say that it needs to be in the slot with more space for a longer card. So the larger slot with more space is what we meant to refer to when we said the QM2-4P needs to be installed in slot 1.
