Can't SLI with this buddy. You will need either an nvidia 760 or 660 Ti and atleast 750w 80 plus power supply if you want to SLI in the future.

ok then i guess i can buy a cheaper motherboard?any suggestions?

 

[saloomi2012]

since you will NOT overclocking the cpu now or in the future, i would suggest this board http://pcpartpicker.com/part/intel-motherboard-boxdp67bgb3

as i can see this motherboard is not available in greece so could you suggest something else?

Biostar TZ77XE3, cheapest good motherboard for SLIng but supports overclocking. cant get to a lower price unless you want slower performance.

both the motherboard and the PSU aren't available here...so i thought SLIing would be good for me in the future but since i can't find anything good it isn't necessary.i can pay around 100$ for a motherboard (asrock and asus motherboards are found easily) so if there is not another option i guess i'll have to go with a slower one and maybe get an 660 ti?

check the link again, pick a psu that is avalible in greece that is 750w. The closest asus/asrock mobo to $100 that is SLIable will not make you get full performance from the second pcie slot(x4) sorry but that is how it is unless you can get some extra cash for a motherboard that can suppourt 16x 8x/16x 16x/ 8x 8x

how much extra cash?because if i can just add 40$ and stick with the 660 it would be worth it

if i could sli with an 660 i would probably go for that but in the beginning you told me i'll need an 660 ti to sli...

yes you can only sli with 660 ti or 760. If you could manage to afford a 660 ti it would be good or you can get a cheaper equivilant amd card that can Crossfire(which is sli) if you want to. If you want to go with amd, get a 7850/7870, whichever fits your budget.

sounds like an interesting solution...any good motherboard with crossfire at the same price range?because 660 ti would be way over my budget

the motherboard in your pcpartpicker list is sufficent and the 7870 in the US is the same price as the 660 you have in you pcpartpicker, don't know about greece though :l

the price is almost the same with 7850 but i can think about adding 40$ more.Also will this psu be good enough to power whichever of these gpus i chose?
