Question 680i Motherboard

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813188013

My friend has a used 680i mobo, and would sell it for $100.


If I get it, I plan on overclocking my CPU, a lot and adding another 8800GT.


What do you think?

I think it's a good deal! I'd get it if I was you... Except, I think that it'd run x8 / x8 when in SLI. I may be wrong though...

What do you mean?

I wouldn't get the full SLi from both GT's?


Thanks.

it runs 16x/8x when in SLI, just like any other SLI board with the 680i chipset. are you sure its teh A1 revision?

Sorry, forgot to mention that, that is not the actual Mobo, I just got a 680i reference link.


Thanks.
