First ever Gaming Computer!! seeking the wise!

So you need an nForce chipset to put multiple NVidia Cards on an AMD board. But with the nForce Chipsets being terrible.... someone looking to eventually add a second card really ought to go with an Intel 1366 or 1156 socket, or an AMD CPU with a 780, 790, or 8xx series AMD board so long as they are pairing that AMD Board to Radeon Cards?

It sounds like the only CPU's that give you the option to go either way are the better Intel Chips.

Right now intel P55 or X58 are the only multi platform boards, as AMD is not going to support SLI on their chipsets for obvious reasons.
