Any gpu should work with any board fine. The pcie slot doesn't change. Have you tried updating the bios?

Asrock OC Formula 7970XTX Quadfire

G.Skill Ripheartout X OC 7000Mhz C28 DDR5 4X16GB

As long as you slot it in the correct port it should always work, wether it's the newest high end motherboard, some old crappy dell one or in your case a gigabyte board. I suggest trying another video card or device in that same slot to see if it's dead, because my motherboard also had a failing pci express slot.

Also check to see if there is a dead Pci-e slot

on bios updates page ,update f3 says : incrased nvidia cards compatibility , that means that mobos need updates  to recognise newer gpus
