If it says it supports CrossfireX, does it mean JUST CrossfireX?

I'm in the process of building a new gaming rig and in the process of mobo shopping I noticed that some of the mobo's say "CrossfireX Ready" for multi-gpu capability. Now I'm looking to go with an EVGA gpu (EVGA is my favorite) and am looking to eventually upgrade to another card in sli. Now if i go with a mobo that ONLY says "CrossfireX" does that limit me to JUST crossfire? or would i be able to use Nvidia's SLI also?

This is the board in particular:

Now this board isn't the best out there and i do plan on upgrading piece by piece....i'd just like to know now before i make a mi$take.
