Can i run 2 GPUs on this chipset? (A55) Motherboard GA-F2A55M-HD2.

From what i read a PCIe x1 gen2 is enough for mining, but i can't find more info of this other than the diagram from the manual. I have these mobo left from an old pc of mine, so i was thinking of using it for mining with 2 gpus. would it be posible, should i buy a A75 chipset motherboard, or neither of these will work?

A55 chipset is PCI-e Gen2 only with 16 lanes available for a single PCI-e device. No multi-GPU support is available. the A75 Supports AMD Quad CrossFireX, 3-Way CrossFireX, CrossFireX and Dual Graphics

Mining doesn't use dual GPU support (SLI or CrossFire).

GPU in mining rig operate independently on each other so if you have PCIe x1 to x16 riser it should work. 

You will split your PCIe lines 8 line will be for x16 slot and 1 line will be for x1 slot but it should fine for mining.
