hi 

i am looking for a micro atx board for an i5-4670k to run dual r9-270x but i want a board with dual x16 slots both running at x16 but i can only find boards running x16,x8 or x16,x8,x4 which will slow down the performance of the gpus. does any one know if these micro atx boards running dual x16 exist?  

HP Pavilion Elite HPE-421f   Intel Core i7 870  DIAMOND HD7750 GPU  

MS-7613 MOTHERBOARD  6GB RAM             600-WATT PSU

MSI Gaming series. Atleast the 1150 socket with the better on-board audio. But I think Gigabyte have their implentation which is sorta the same with the gigabyte sniper series too.

Pci-e 3.0 x4 or Pci-e 2.0 x8 and up for each gpu won't bottleneck for sli/cf.
