Hello friends. I'm new here and would like to ask the community a question. I currently own an Asus Sabertooth Z77. I watched this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XL0uxDvrMI (9:00 minutes in ) and the gentlemen said that there is not much of a difference between 8x SLI 2-way vs 16x 2-way. (I hope I listened correctly.) Anyway, I was wondering if that is accurate and if I should upgrade my motherboard to the EVGA Z77 FTW because 2-way SLI will run in 16x as opposed to 2-way SLI 8x that my Sabertooth puts out. Hope this makes sense. Thanks in advance.

(On a side note I'm asking now as I plan on getting another 680 Classified come tax time. I like to plan ahead)
