Hey there and good morning to everyone.

I have a question regarding the Motherboard GA-Z170-HD3P (rev. 1.0).
http://www.gigabyte.us/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5495#sp

Under the "Specifications" it specifically says the following:
Support for 2-Way: AMD CrossFire™ technology

I believe it is obvious that it will not support SLI, but a random person disagreed on me with that so i'd like to verify it with you. The more important question though is that it supports all GPUS, not only AMD's ones, right? Because another person disagreed on me with that, he told me that i will require to get an AMD GPU, and not an NVidia.

Currently i am not looking to SLI anything, and i will not be looking to SLI in the future either.

At the same time i'd like your opinion between those 2 MBs:
GA-Z170M-D3H (rev. 1.0) vs GA-Z170-HD3P (rev. 1.0)

Finally, for generic knowledge here is what i am attempting to build:

  • Case: Corsair Carbide 200R
    MB: GA-Z170-HD3P (rev. 1.0)
    GPU: MSI GeForce GTX1070 8GB Armor OC
    CPU: Intel Core i5-6600K Box
    RAM: HyperX Fury 8GB DDR4-2133MHz (HX421C14FB/8) (x2)
    HDD: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" SATA ??? (x2)
    SSD: Samsung 850 Evo 250GB
    CPU Cooler: CoolerMaster Hyper 212 EVO
    PSU: Corsair RMx Series 750W

If for any reason you think that something could or should be changed, feel free to say so :)

Thank you for reading all the way to here.

No your mobo does not support SLI . Nvidia cards are supported by your motherboard not only AMD. The SLI topic on this MOBO is all over google you can check for it. Happy to help!
