Rampage Formula or Maximus 2 Formula?

[szala11]

Which one is better considering a dual-Crossfire setup? Intel® X48/ICH9R or Intel® P45/ICH10R ? Which chipset performs better in a dual-Crossfire setup?

Also if i want to buy a Radeon 4870 and later add another 4870 what PSU shall i buy for little money?

The price difference isn't that much, get the rampage formula if you want to crossfire. The extra pci-e lanes might be useful in the future. As for the PSU, a Corsair 650TX should be enough.

i would go with the rampage... full CF pcie 2.0 could be beneficial in the future

and how much 'little money'

I'd like to get a brand new 800W PSU around 100-125$? Is it possible? Little difference doesn't matter.

Thanks!
