    If you really must go crossfire with two of those, wait for x38 boards and you will have two 16x pci-e slots

    wont the x38 support SLI? I thought intel was dropping crossfire due to the AMD tie with ATI

    in theory it can do either subject to driver support.
    SLI/CF is virtually all in the gfx drivers requiring only a small bit of BIOS work as far as the mobo is concerned.
