i'm thinking about building a new system as soon as the Q9450 price drops this 3Q of the year (which is expected i believe?). I want to know if I can get any recommendations (budget of ~$150) for a mobo. I initially was going to get 8800GT SLI knowing that the price of 8800GT are starting to hit below 150 with rebates. But with the release of HD4850/4870. I'm torn between choosing a board that has SLI or Crossfire. It is either 1. get some SLI board and get 8800GT SLI or 2. get a mobo with crossfire capability and stick with just one 4850 for now and put another 4850 later. So what I also want to ask is which has more potential in the future SLI or Crossfire? Oh and specific recommendations of SLI/CrossFire mobo would be great
Thanks in advance!
