I want to spend money as less as possible and still get a pretty decent gaming rig (basically, I'm capped at 1000$ now :/). What do you guys think of this? Oh, and I chose a SLI motherboard because I'm considering SLI'ing the video card in the near future. Also, can anyone tell me what are the differences between the MSI P7N SLI Platinum motherboard and the ASUS P5N-D motherboard? They are at same price so I don't know which one to choose

greets
