SLI: Will I ever need it?

Posted on here before about a system I'm about to build...
I have been looking at the Gigabyte GA-X48-DS4 Intel X48 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 but it has recently occured to me that this does not support SLI and I plan to get a 8800 GTX.
I am not a heavy gamer (the only game I currently play is command and conquer 3) but I do have a 24inch monitor and do enjoy full HD movies.
Based on my uses do you think another graphics card (and therefore an SLI motherboard) is something I will ever need?
I only ask becuase I am hesitant to get an nForce 780i instead of the seemingly trustworthy Gigabyte due to the reviews not being very positive in terms of drivers etc.
Opinions on the matter would be appreciated!
(Sorry if this belongs in the motherboard forum).
Thanks
