guys i want to know if want to use ATI 5970 Crossfire which motherboard is the best?

there is anyway to get full power of the secondary card?

Depends on what cpu you're using and socket type. Most likely need more information on what kind of pc you have. Then we'd be able to determine what mobo within the platform you're running would suit your needs...
