To maintain good 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.
NOTE
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 see the section,
“Displaying and Setting the Monitor Type” in Chapter 6, Boot Console
Handler in this document.
See the section titled “I/O Cards” on page 106 for details on installing I/O cards.
