Ive read a couple of things which suggest that this... http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-135-MS supports both crossfire and sli, can anyone confirm that this is true? And if so what is the crossfire/sli speed is it 16x 16x? All seems a little to awesome for the price so my final question is what is this board like? any good?
Couple of questions about this Mobo...

Hi there,
Unfortunately it doesn't support either. It uses a different tech called hydra to run multiple graphics cards. According to this review the tech doesn't really work yet - so I would stick with boards that do support crossfire until Lucid get hydra working properly.
As for the board, it uses the 870 AMD chipset and seems to perform and overclock well.
My suggestion would be to find a 890GX board for around £100 that supports CrossfireX x8x8

Hmmm, yeh the fuzion mode seems to be a little pants according to that but they do attribute it to driver problems which may be resolved by the time i buy my PC. Are there any good AMD mobos about that support SLI, i really want an AMD cpu but am looking at gtx 460s as my GPU option because they seem like good bang for buck and wanna have the option of 2 GPUs down the line.

I wouldn't bank on them fixing the drivers any time soon, MSI released a P55 board with the same hydra chip in January and it experienced very similar problems.
