MotherBoard Option 1 :
Striker II Formula
ASUSTeK Computer Inc.

MotherBoard Option 2 :
Maximus II Formula
ASUSTeK Computer Inc.


Thanks in advance!

I would say you were nuts for considering paying so much money for yesterday's high end gear. If you're not necessarily set on these two boards and you're willing to hear from teh peanut gallery, maybe let us know what equipment you're starting with and we can make recommendations for the best upgarde for your budget.

Maximus II Formula is Crossfire ONLY. No SLI support.

So you're only choice is that Striker. Though there are other, cheaper SLI boards out there like the EVGA 750i FTW.
