Hi there,
Would you need a motherboard that supports and runs well with two graphics card in SLI and CF?
If not then this board is great. If you would like SLI/CF then this is a good board.
If you would like a board that supports PCIE gen 3 (when used with a Ivy Bridge CPU) then this is a good board.

If you got the money the Asrock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3 is a very nice board with lots of features. If you haven't got the CPU yet i recommend spending an extra £10 for the retail version, you will get 2 extra warranty years and have it come in a sealed box so you know it hasn't been played with
