Hey everyone, this is my first post and would greatly appreciate any replies!
I am building a new pc mainly for gaming (crysis, far cry2 COD5 etc...)
I need some advice on what mobo to go for. I would like it to be SLI compatible as i am planning on going for 2x gtx285 which i believe would be better than 2x 4890.
My cpu will be an e8500 oc to 4ghz, so mobo must support socket 775 and be good for overclocking.
Ideally i would go for an intel chipset board over nvidia, but that would require an i7 cpu which is just out of my price range and would also result in a lower clock speed (i7 920 @ 2.66ghz) and right now for gaming clock speed is more important than number of cores.
So to sum up, what socket 775 SLI mobo should i go for! (Budget £160).
Thank you!
