Once I heard that this single PCI-e input SLI video card came out I was pumped knowing I might have the capability to run a 1GB video card, but I've done a bit of reserch into it and I'm worried that my motherboard wont support this card, can anyone help me confirm my suspicions?

As long as your motherboard has a PCI-Express slot, it'll work.

Off hand I would say that the 7950 should work. It does take up two slots, though, so you should make sure you have room . Also confirm that you have a big enough power supply, at least 500 wt. Checking the specs on both the motherboard and the card, I see no conflicts that stick out. This is as close to SLI as you're going to get with your present motherboard.
