[swagoris]

if a motherboard has 2 x16 pci-e's can i run 2 nvidia gpus with it?

no, it has to have an SLI sticker on the box

no

 

but it can run Crossfire with Radeon GPUs

you will be able to run 2 amd cards but does not look like the motherboard supports sli so no nvidea cards

Well you can use each card independently so he could. Not SLI for him but still.

AMD CrossFire - Supported
Nvidia SLI - Not Supported

Most boards don't support SLI since Nvidia charge a fee for it.

pardon me if I automatically concluded SLI when someone pointed at a budget consumer motherboard for Skylake asking whether or not it can run two nVidia GPUs at the same time.

I should've asked if the author maybe wanted to do GPGPU compute with that hardware, but then he would have to go with Radeons or Firepro regardless.

Unless of course it was dedicated PhysX card that he had actually in mind with that question.

 

I am so sorry once more, I hope we can stay friends

don_svetlio, what a shame, you shouldn't assume SLI at the first sight of two nVidia GPUs, as @GreezyJeezy pointed it is very disrespectful and insensitive of you to think like that.

Truth be told, people used to have dedicated PhysX ovens, I mean cards (Thermi days <3).

I personally know people that would run dedicated Hairworks, Flameworks, Smokeworks, Batmancapeworks and PhysX cards at the same time if nVidia allowed it. Huang is missing out on a whole new market for dedicated graphics solutions to sell.

Oh and to make it clear he never asked can I run then at the same time. He just asked if he can use 2 GPUs on his motherboard.

I know you'll say smoething about it and it won't let me edit the post I meant to say them not then.
