Please add what to do if both of your gpus are identical. This is an issue that was a huge headache for me. I actually gave up and went to fedora over it. I missed Arch after two weeks and went back. I was able to get it to work in fedora on the first go. I haven't given it another go just yet. I'll report back in a few days as I'll be trying it again.
From what I've gathered, it's mostly about using a stript to bind the GPUs you want to vfio-pci using the driver_override mecanism. Is that correct?

No. Blank is mostly correct on this, newer kernel remove the pcieport driver test and presumes any driver attached to a bridge device is ok.
Really? From what I understood reading your IOMMU article, plus from the issues I had getting my own GPU to work on the CPU-based PCIe slot on my E3-1200, I thought having a PCIe root port grouped with a PCI device made the GPU unsuited for passthrougs. What reccomendations should I give here <https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PCI_passthrough_via_OVMF#Plugging_your_guest_GPU_in_an_unisolated_CPU-based_PCIe_slot>, then?
