Is this motherboard compatible with the Nvidia GTX 970?

yes I think so I had a cheaper version of the card, it work great. mostly it any mother with pci 3 slot is compatible with any card that uses pci 3 slots. Note this card does take up two slots on the board due to the fan size.

EVGA GeForce GTX 970 SC long as its a pci yes and can work for that motherboard but let me fill you in just a bit, make sure you have the right power supply for the card some cards min is like 400 min some are 200 min so you want to make sure you are running like 600watts for power supply to be bal's out. plus is you use the amd 12computer that 4 core +8gpu with a ati r9 readon and a scansnow ssd 250 the scores on the computer read's ))))---&gt;processor 7.4)--&gt;memory 7.6 thats with 2133mgrz 8gb)--&gt;my graphcis desktop and gaming graphics performance is both 7.9 with amd radeon r9 270 series ran me 260.00))---&gt; and my ssd is also 7.9,, i hope this helps you out,,,, and the best one to USE FOR THE CUP IS THE (AMD A10-7850K RADEON R7,12 COMPUTE CORES 4C+8GPU) IM RUNNGING AT 4.0 WITH NO H2O COOLENT

MSI 970A-G46. It'a a decent and inexpensive board. I'm using it in the same case as we speak. It has overclocking capabilities as well as Crossfire/SLI compatability at full x8 speed whenever you want to upgrade.

Yes... more importantly check to see if it is compatible with your motherboard!

Yes, that would work. You can always check the MSI website, the detailed specifications for the motherboard. You're looking for the AM3+ compatability: http://us.msi.com/product/mb/970A-G45.html#?div=Detail

The card will be compatible with any motherboard with a PCIe port, which pretty much every motherboard has. Just make sure it's not too big for your case and it'll be fine.

No, this is all on board. Gigabyte does make an nvidia version you might consider.

yes the Sabertooth 990FX AM3+ does support SLI. The GTX 970 is a Nvidia Based GPU witch would be SLI. The board does have PCI-E X16 slots.

Yes The motherboard supports SLI, and it will work with any Two of the same model Nvidia cards.

yes it should work with no problem....I just built a system for a customer who used his old nvidia 9800 GTX+ video card and it worked fine with that double width nvidia card
1548259
Yup, actually has 3 - 2.0 x16 PCI Express Slots which will run at dual x16 (this is where your dual gtx 970 would be) or x16, x8, x8 (if you add a third card)!

Software wise the motherboard can handle both ATI & Nvidia cards. Make sure card slot type it the right one

Not familiar with gtx 970 but if it has a female DP port on its side and your monitor has a male HDMI jack on the end, you should be all set.

I'm using this board right now and it's pretty good. I would say any nvidia gtx hight than 600. It might be old but it performs great. Just be very gentle when installing it.

Yes. This motherboard has a PCIe x16 slot, and can support that card just fine.

Yes it is compatible, it is on the list of compatible cards.You should be ready to go when your 7950 arrives.
