If i buy Asus Z-170 Pro gaming or Z-170-A motherboard. Will it work with Asus Geforce Gtx 1060 6Gb Dual Gpu? Because they are saying in Gpu's website "To have the best cooling performance, ASUS DUAL-GTX1060 extends the fansink to 2.1 slots. Please double check you Chassis and Motherboard dimension prior to purchase to make sure it fits in your system! " and i didn't find 2.1 slots on those motherboards?

I think this means that its a very thick card which goes slightly beyond 2 slots thick. If you are not using the PCIe x1 slot under the pcie x16 slot where the gfx card will fit then it will fit ok. The card is 9.53 inches long(24.2cm) x 5.12 inches tall (13cm) x 1.69 Inches thick (4.3cm). So also card length AND height need to be taken into account. When I fitted my MSI RX 580 Gaming X into my case, it only just fitted into an old coolmaster full tower case (both length and height).
