I just recently bought this motherboard and it has a ATI SB600.. Kind of new at running dual video cards... Well, my question is can I run SLI instead of Crossfire????.... :confused:

If this motherboard can support SLI I was thinking about getting two MSI 8800gt or if it doesn't than second option is to run crossfire with two Radeon HD 3870 512MB.... What do people think 8800gt of 3870 radeon..??

You can run a Nvidia card but just not 2 in SLI, a couple of 3850s or 3870s in crossfire is not bad. But SLI and Crossfire is kinda overrated
