I was curious to know if this motherboard would be able to handle two:

GIGABYTE GV-N460OC-1GI GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

* GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) ...
* 1GB GDDR5
* PCI Express 2.0 x16

* Chipset Manufacturer: NVIDIA
* Core Clock: 715MHz (std 675)
* Shader Clock: 1430MHz
* Stream Processors: 336 Processor Cores

If you have any suggestions please let me know. Thanks

Yes, that motherboard can handle 2 graphics cards, but from what I read on the technical specifications. It's only CrossFireX ready rather than SLi, and when running 2 cards in CF the PCI-E slots run at x4.
