Cards will work in pci-e x1 without problem, use pci-e raisers like this:

Also, you may need to shortcut 2 pins in pce-e x1 to make it work:

i do not know about the actual question, but i wanted to tell you that a 6950 should be getting at least 350mh/s https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison i would first look to see what others are doing to get the substantially more megahash than you

I did see that other people were getting way more m/hash than me but i couldn't message them/reply to the thread because of my newb status :/
Try to write "-v -w 128" to extra flags field

Thanks for the tips, im just wondering how complicated/risky is the  process of shortcutting those pins? I dont have much hardware experience other than the only pc i've built which is the one im using now.
