Motherboard Specifications

According to this, your motherboard can only accommodate two graphic cards. If you install a graphics card in the second PCI-Ex16 slot (PCIEX4), your two PCI-Ex1 slots are disabled.

(Note: Technically, you probably could also install two PCI graphic cards (PCI not PCI-E), but they would not help with mining).

The 850 watt PSU should be enough for your two cards.
