Intel Optane on Gigabyte G170X-Gaming7

[FlareTech]

I have the Gigabyte G170X Gaming 7 and I wanted to buy an Intel Optane 32gb chip for my 2tb HDD but I can't seem to find information on whether or not my Motherboard supports it. I have the latest BIOS and Intel Drivers for Rapid Storage but I need to know if I can use the Optane card. Please let me know, thanks!

According to Intel, you need 200 series chipset (e.g. Z270) or higher for optane support.
