[SOLVED] Does Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3 support 2 Nvidia GPUs?

Hi, I was wondering if my motherboard Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3 supports two Nvidia GPUs.

I'm not looking for sli (would be used for mining) thank you in advance for helping.

The other card would be a gtx 1060 and the other one a gtx 1070

In that case, yes, just need available PCIe slots. Though the board has enough slots/lanes for SLI, it is not supported on that board. Will do crossfire though.

So it would be fine? My plan is to eventually sell the GTX 1060 pnce I've mined a bit with it. The board has only 1 pcie 16 slot so I wasn't really sure if the other pcie 8 slot would be enough for the 1060

For mining it only needs a 1x connection. You aren't pushing a wide bandwidth job like graphics rendering, just forcing the GPU to do lots of calculations. So a small input, lots of calculation, and small outputs.
