Seems like a very good price for a Z170 Motherboard with the following features.
- 2x HDMI 2.0
- 2x PCI-E M.2 slots
- 1x USB 3.1 Type-C port
Only 7 left in stock though.

How many times in all of your builds have you ever run SLI, Crossfire Vs how the times that you've wasted money and paid the extra for SLI/Crossfire support but never got around to using it..? :laughing:

It's nice to have the option to run multiple graphics cards but the fact is, at the price point of the cards you would actually want to run them this board wouldn't be a consideration as it is too cheap.
Having had rather a lot of multi GPU configurations over the years they are without doubt more trouble than they are worth for anything below mega high end. Especially in a world full of terrible ports.
Always trade up to the fastest single GPU card you can before considering moving to multi GPU setups.

:laughing: LOL
I put money on it you though with all your efforts you still to date have not seen twice amount GPU performance from your 2x (cough 3.5GB cough) 970's, even with all your efforts and custom drivers and fiddling per game just to get the full potential from them. :laughing:
I'd prefer 1x 980ti over two 970's :P

Just noticed that myself, CrossFire only. Suppose they had to cut corners somewhere to get it to that price.
