I need the cheapest LGA 1150 board that supports SLI. I was looking at this, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157512&cm_re=1150_asrock-_-13-157-512-_-Product but I feel like the second GPU would cover all of the pins at the bottom?

I dont recommend asrock's pro3/4 series, they failed on me twice :( (once in z77 and once in z87).

Oh and that board doesn't support SLI.

 

I can recommend: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asrock-motherboard-z97mocformula and http://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-motherboard-gaz97mxgaming5 for micro atx boards that support sli.

You need a Z board (87/97) for SLI. Anything else will not work.

I had a mosfet leak on the z77 board xD It was infact my mums build (3570K, HD 7770). I got a gigabyte z77x ud3h and it works just fine now :)

 

But asrocks HIGH HIGH end boards like their OC series was OK in Z77.

Asrock boards are good now, it's just that they screwed up in those Z77 days.

its a good motherboard and you have a good deal on it...if you're not too picky in regards to fans control its a good choice.
