I tried finding this out on my own today being that im in bed with pnemonia but ive finally given up.
Heres my situation:
Im getting a BFG 7800gtx 512mb and im basically rebuilding my computer around it. Im trying to find the best motherboard for the video card. I plan on eventually going SLI with the cards and i want 2 gigs of ram, the good stuff.
My bro says ive got a good enough intel processor that it wont "bottleneck" my new vid card so i dont think i need to replace that. I have a new 400 gig hard drive and a 550 watt power supply.
Im pretty lost at this point and im afraid ill buy a bad mobo 
Thanks
Hey
There is a mobo by asus that will support that card.
I don’t know what socket your proc is so it makes finding a mobo harder.
But if you want to run SLI in the future this is the mobo I suggest.

Reviews are high and people like it so you really cant go wrong.
Also you may want to think about a new PSU that card is a power hog. I know I have 2 (EVGA Flavor though) 
Hope you get better
