micro ATX ( SO it can fit in my case ) 

 

that really limits it. this is about the best and only thing you're going to find with microATX.

On paper yes you could, however nivida usually requires certification before it'll allow sli. If you're using amd cards (crossfire I know, but it's still really sli) you should be alright to go.

In theory, yes, but don't quote me on that. The chipset can handle SLI, iirc

I know that the Chipset can handle SLI, but the thing is should I do it and Can I configure BIOS to accept it ? and thing also that I'm stuck with Nvidia because I already have one GTX 770

what people need to understand is that HP is GREAT for the office, but thats about where it ends, HP also does next to no effort to actually go outside of that space.

 

i've had one of their buisiness laptops, and it's actually not too bad aside from a few issues (windows vista, faulty hard drive, dust issues, ... i managed to pick their worst line of laptops ever made, even the store i got it from realised their mistake when ALL of them came back for repairs within a few months... but after the necessary fixes it's still going after 6-7 years)

my dad had one of their high end buisiness laptops for 6 years, before the windows installation took a dump, and the store said it'd be a bad idea to fix it, because it was worn out to the bone. (and horrendously outdated... 60GB hard drive anyone?)

 

on the topic of their desktops: once again great for office use, and maybe some mild gaming.

 

i'm pretty sure this specific motherboard is for workstation use, and the second PCIe x16 slot is for a high end ethernet, wifi or ssd card, or for a second GPU for rendering. (or compute)

maybe, the PCI slots have enough bandwidth

so a 100-300 budget? in USD?

We can't Benchmark like we used to, but we have our ways. One trick is to shove more GPUs in your computer. Like the time I needed to NV-Link, because I needed a higher HeavenBench score, so I did an SLI, which is what they called NV-Link back in the day. So, I decided to put two GPUs in my computer, which was the style at the time. Now, to add another GPU to your computer, costs a new PSU. Now in those days PSUs said OCZ on them, "Gimme 750W OCZs for an SLI" you'd say. Now where were we? Oh yeah, the important thing was that I had two GPUs in my rig, which was the style at the time! They didn't have RGB PSUs at the time, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big green ones.
