Default Looking for a nicely priced SLI motherboard

Hey guys,

I'm looking to upgrade my P35-DS3 to an SLI compatible motherboard. I just looking for one with just 2 PCI-E x16 slots for SLI I don't think I need 3 because i wouldn't be able to afford it. I think the best one with 2 graphics card slots is the 750i chipset, unless the 680i is better, but I would also like suggestions on one of them for a price/performance ratio e.g. evga 750i SLI mobo. thanks!

The 680i is a great overclocker, and would work great with your current cpu. However if you are looking to future proof your system, the 750i has 45mn support and is quad core overclockable, plus it's cheaper and is easier to find. IMO i'd go for the 750i

I was heading down that track of the 750i, but which one?
