    SLI requires at minimum an x8 lane. The 3rd and 4th PCIE lane on your motherboard is a x4 lane which would not support SLI.

    Any PCIE cards you wish. They can even be used for more graphics cards albeit not for SLI specifically.

    You should have..If you have an add-in card in the PE3 slot, it will drop the PE2 slot down into x4 Mode and break SLI which needs slots to run in at least x8 Mode as stated by MDecker..Take out the other add-in card if you have any installed..See page 12 of the mobo manual for PCIe slot breakdown.
