Motherboard shopping
Im looking for a SLI motherboard that works with a 939 athlon 64 processer.
Im not going to put 2 videocards in now but for the future I will so would there be anything wrong with putting in a ATI card with an Nvidia card? |

I could be wrong, but with SLI in order to get use out of the two card slots the vid cards have to be the same, so there wouldnt be any point in putting in two different cards, you might as well just use one.

Yeah, ATI is not supported with SLI. Only two of the same nVidia card will work. Do you want suggestions on a good SLI motherboard?

SLI is nvidia only hardware, ati's version is called crossfire Quote:
 Anyhow, what is your budget for the motherboard, and what is the system to be used for?
