If you want a cheap Intel motherboard this will do: MSI P6N SLI Platinum LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 650i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail $109.99 after rebate http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130081 For AMD you can go with Crossfire X38 or X48 motherboards, which are not cheap.
