Is it possible to insert a wifi pci-e card when the mobo already has a sli gtx 970 setup?

It depends on how large the 970's are. The board would support all of this at once, but it depends on which slots you had to put the 970's in, and whether they cover both of the pci-e slots.

Yes, all that happens is that the Graphics Card steps down to run onto PCI-E 2.0. The only difference is the bandwidth, PCI-E 3.0 has double the bandwidth of 2.0, so they are interoperable, but only top tier cards get anywhere close to saturating either bus I believe, so don't be nervous.

Yeah, I am currently using this MOBO with my i7 4790k. It should work with the GTX 970, that's what I'm planning to upgrade to. Check out pcpartpicker.com, you select all your computer parts and it tells you if there are compatibility issues. I believe there are only 3 fan headers so you'd have to use a splitter, and I'm not so sure of any good ones. Sorry! Hope this helps.

Yes a PCI-E x1 card will work in the PCI-E x16 slot on this motherboard. You will just be utilizing the first 18 pins: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express#Pinout

Yes, provided you have either an SLI bridge or a board that supports SLI without one

You don't actually use a PCI port, just the bracket slot. That port, however, will be useless with the module in place.

If you mean link these 2 cards with bridge, Id say no: Sli works only with cards of the same model.

Yes. With the mobo you can actually use upto two pci-e cards like this in crossfire.

This board does not have a built in WiFi card, grab an Asus pci-e card for around $20.

ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-half-WiFi-Link-Ultimate-N-6300-pci-card-633ANHMW-/250729311691 showed your system as compatible, I looked at Intel but didn't have much luck... FYI, the card has three antenna leads, the card I replaced only used two of my laptops three, and I wasn't successful getting the third lead attached -- will eventually attempt. Running with two leads didn't improve the performance (download/upload speed I'm paying for) so as my router is three feet away, using Ethernet.

Yes we have this configuration with the Nvidia SLI GTX 880M video card setup here -http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00JCBXL5O

Hi I could not find anything on your PC as far as what open ports are available to add cards use this site to compare what you have available and match it with the wireless card http://networking.ringofsaturn.com/PC/slottypes.php. It may be a PCI-e 16 or a pci-e 1

well, i have a board with pci-e 2.0 and this card works fine, but if you think that the asrock will work not too fine so you need to wait more and get more moneymy MOBO is a MSI 970a-g43

Looking at the model specifications, it seems the only free slot you have available is a pci-e (express) slot. That's no problem though, here's an example of one with the correct interface: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833166019&Tpk=rosewill%20rc%20411

What I see on the box says it is compatible with 3.0 motherboard, which means it's backward compatible. Should be just fine pci-e 2.0.
