what slot should I install my ASUS STRIX SOAR Sound Card, I have a z170 pro gaming motherboard and a GTX 1080 that's installed in the slot closest to the CPU?

Any other available PCI express slot, you can use one of the x16 slot or one of the x1 slots, its completely up to you.

I just wouldnt recommend putting it in the 2nd PCI-e x16 slot as this will probably pull your graphics card down to an x8 speed instead of x16.
