NOTE To maintain optimum graphics performance, you should always use slot
2 (SL2) as your primary graphics card slot and slot 4 (SL4) as your
secondary graphics card slot.
If you connect your monitor to a different graphics card slot, you will
need to change the graphics path for that monitor. To do this read the
section “Displaying and Setting the Monitor Type” in the chapter “The
Boot Console Interface.”
