sli question ?

[brandxbeer]

I have the msi H97M-G43 with a gtx 980. Is my motherboard capable of running another gtx 980 in sli?

looks like AMD crossfire support only

Vlad is correct. The reason is that SLI needs at least two PCIe x8 lanes, and this motherboard has a x16 and a x4.

Damn, I specifically mentioned sli to the store when I built it. Any suggestions for a mother board?

In reality, most motherboards will be fine. You need to figure out what features you want and then find one in your price range that has those features.
