R rapidman17 New member Nov 14, 2009 #5 what graphics card are you using? Thinking of SLI or Xfire anytym soon? x48 or p45 chipsets are what you should be looking for. maybe the p5e3 pro or premium, the p5q deluxe is also very good. if you dont need dual gigabit lan then the p5q pro turbo will do....
