Default New motherboard reccomendations
Hey guys, looking for a nice new motherboard, I'm looking for one thats either got crossfire support or SLI support. I'm looking more toward crossfire atm though. Also not too big a fan of Gigabyte.

DFI is the way to go if you don't mind an overwhelming list of bios settings and functions.
Quality parts and cpu are a must.
