    hey guys, thinking about making a new gaming beast :D i just wanted your input in the motherboard and CPU section, i'm not sure if i want to OC just yet, i will if it's fairly easy, but if it's too complicated, it's not for me, and i'm thinking about getting 2 gfx cards eventually so crossfire/SLI'd be great on the mobo :D thanks in advance ^_^

    budget/ desire to OC?

    if you OC:

    opteron 165 or 170
    DFI ultra D

    if you don't plan on it

    Athlon x2 4200+
    DFI Ultra D

    just mod the ultra D for SLI in the future, or better yet, just sell the ancient card and buy a completely new one.SLI only gives mroe bang/$ when the single card is on the extreme high end(two 7900GTs in SLI Vs. 1 7900GTX)
