hey guys, as per title, I was looking at the p8p67m pro, but saw it has 2 pci-e slots but it runs in 16x and in 4x, but then i saw the gigabyte z68ma-d2h micro atx board. this runs at 16x and 8x, and its usually under £80 (dont know about on here, if OCUK sell it) so what do you think I should get? Basically, what is the best sub 100 pound M-ATX board that will happily run 2 graphics cards?
thanks

it isnt to replace my sabertooth no matey, this is a pet project i have because i bought a 2500k, asus xonar d2 and 5770 for 120 lol.
tbh i never though of z77, i was just looking at the best p67/z68 and there used prices, didnt think id get a good one new for less than 100, that gigabyte one i saw was only 80 new!

You done well there. Did you manage to sort your ram problem.
 
Which slot is it? Just thinking if slot 2 and 4 are OK, stick existing ram in the mATX board and just get 2x4gb for the Sabretooth.
