Does anyone here know of any new AM3 Mobo's coming out that will support Nvidia SLi.

Im currently deciding on what to buy for my upcoming upgrade shortly and have decided that im going with the AMD Phenom ii 720BE processor.
Ive also decided since i dont upgrade the system very often im going to go with an AM3 Mobo and DDR 3 Memory.

At present OCuk only stock 2 AM3 Mobo's both of which are Crossfire support,
but i currently use Nvidia cards.
i currently have 2 x 8800 GTS 320Mb cards in sli which will change in the next few days as i have a Nvidia 9800 GX2.
I do use my pc to run F@H so when i inseert the 9800 GTS one of the 8800GTS cards will remain to help with folding.

I know this on a crossfire board should be not a problem as the 9800 gx2 should run sli when needed and the 8800gts will run seperatly,
but i would like to be able to add a second 9800 GX2 later for quad sli which i know doe's not work on a crossfire board.

I've had a llok on the net but so far have been unable to find any info on an AM3 Mobo with DDR3 and SLI.
 
I was thinking about getting a 720BE but the only option for SLI users is to purchase a AM2+ motherboard. I don't want to be limited to DDR2, so I'm going to wait a couple of months and save for a core i7 build instead. If I hear anything about new AM3 SLI motherboards between now and then, I'll probably hold off even longer.
 
I'll be able to afford an i7 by the end of March anyway. Hehe, don't know why I was in such a hurry to build a new PC. Probably because I had a new Antec 902 sitting in front of me doing nothing. I've stuck my 939 motherboard in there now... something to do.
