Alright. Right after Chritsmas is when I am going to Build my PC.
I am going to run the Q6600 and try to run dual 8800's in SLI.
I want to know which motherboard you guys think it good for this. Before I was going to get the one snyper posted, but that is no longer available. So what do you guys think? thanks.

This is a tip that will save you a ton of cash, do not buy Fatal1ty shit. Get the item that is like it, without his name, and you get basically the same product just not his name, if you want the name on it, do it yourself lol. I've found every fatality item is useless compared to it's non named counterpart. Video cards and Sound cards especially, don't get a physics card, i'd suggest the Killer Network Card, shown here: http://killernic.com/landpage/?gclid=CNDZt6aAvZACFQ2aOAodVgSkXQJust whatever you do, save money on the Fatal1ty name, you'll regret not doing so if you ever try something without his name on it and see how similar it is. |
 I saw it die, i watched it die.  |

I love my ASUS P5N32-E SLI motherboard. It is the Nvidia 680i chipset and is great for overclocking if you go down that route. It handles the 1333 FSB processors great too. It have 3 x16 slots but you can only do 2 full x16 cards and then the 3rd slot becomes a x8 speed. Will be a great board for doing SLI with. I will be adding a second 8800 Ultra to mine here after the holidays. |

I am pretty sure that board is identical to the striker extreme but without all the bells and whistles. I was going to go with the striker extreme.

Can only run 3 8800 GTX's or 8800 Ultra's though. None of the other cards can do Triple SLI. I was thinking of upgrading to the new EVGA board but I do not want to spend money on a 3rd video card.

I'll bet my lucky knife that a patch will be released that allows the other cards to work. Why wouldnt they? I dont see anything special about the sli properties of an 8800Ultra/GTX that isnt like the lesser cards.

The reason the other cards will not work is cause they only have 1 SLI connector on them where as the GTX and the ULTRA have 2 SLI connectors on them. Check out the pictures of the cards at Newegg. GT  GTS  GTX  ULTRA  |
