Hi.
Need some help plz.

What are the best mobo´s for two X1950XTX in Crossfire and CORE2DUO e6400?

Wich chipset is better for that, p965 or 975x?

What do u think about the ASUS P5B Deluxe?
I read that the 975X based ASUS P5W-DH Deluxe uses 2x8 PCI-E for Crossfire and the P5B Deluxe uses x16 PCI-E on the MCH and the x4 on ICH. Is this what happens in 965 vs 975x mobos?
So what´s the difference? Wich is better and is it relevant?

Will there be a 2x 16 PCI Mobo soon we should wait 4 and would that be a lot better?

PS- I found an ASROCK ConRoeXFire-eSATA2 with crossfire and C2D capability really cheap but it has an 945P chipset. How much would that damage the performance?
8O Awaiting eagerly for enlightenment... 8O

for Crossfire 975X or RD600 is better.
for E6400 overclocking (in conjunction with Crossfire) 965 or RD600 is better so I guess that does make the DFI the best bet with that configuration.
