Is this motherboard compatible with SLI?

Gigabyte Z370P D3 Socket 1151 Coffee Lake DDR4 ATX

I want GTX 950 SLI, is this possible?

The motherboard only has 2-Way CrossFire™ Multi-Graphics Support so not SLI.
I believe you can have a GTX 950 SLI see -

It could but it’s not really worth it, a 1050ti would outperform sli’d 950’s and you wouldn’t have the compatibility issues of SLI

Would it? Apparently two 950’s can get 86fps on GTA V, all settings max, on 1080p

And thanks for your help Millward too, it’s a hard decision, may go for either. What I didn’t tell you is that I already have a 950. So it’s about £40 to get 950 SLI. How about it?

1) The motherboard does not support SLI, only Crossfire (many more motherboards support crossfire than SLI)

2) GTX 950 SLI is a pretty bad plan.

It will give less performance than a GTX 1060 3gb even in a game where it scales pretty well. Better to just get a GTX 1060 3gb (PCS sell them for ~£180 as upgrades to existing customers) and sell the old 950.

Plus issues like it just not working in some titles.
