Time for an Upgrade, Need Suggestion

[frank84]

it's time for me to upgrade, and I am looking to get an AM2 CPU

I have ATI x1951xt and looking for a MOBO that will go great with the setup

any suggestions?

oh, I would like to keep the price below $100

You can mod it to a SLI board if you so desire.

is 'nForce Ultra' still a good chip for AMDs?

It's about the sole choice on desktop for AMD CPUs..

Oh did you mean different nForce chipsets? (like NF4, NF4 SLI, NF5 Ultra, NF5 SLI, etc..?)

If you need many bells and whistles, EVGA NF590 SLI is a good choice. It should be around $100 after rebate, I believe.

lopri, that sounds really good.

but.. SLI mobo won't support crossfire right?
because i am thinking about getting another x1951xt and do crossfire

does that mean, i can't get any nForce chipsets?
