May be a saft question, but if I ever want to go SLI, I cant as I had an mATX board with one PCI-E with my bundle last year.

If I do decide to go ahead, I only want to change the board, add a few fans and get another Nvidia card to twin with my Gtx460 AMP.

A) Is there any way around formatting and re installing a new OS?
B) Is it just as simple as replacing these items, or are there other bits I need to change if swapping the mobo.

Its literally just not being able to go SLI that annoys me, otherwise my processor is fine along with everything else.

Its the re buying/re-licencing of all my photography and uni related software that makes me want to avoid starting over, it cost me a lot the first time even at student prices, and as I'm using for financial gain im not risking getting a back hand copy of them (not that I'm saying OCUK or any of its members would suggest this...)
 
What is the current specs of your system including PSU make and model.

What is your operating system and are you using OEM or is this the academic license.
