There isnt one put simply. for around 100€ you will get a 650i/965 and they just cant handle quads. Save another 50 odd euro and get a p35/x38 or the new 780i (:p)

That board you picked is a p35 and should do grand.

Yes as you read......I think that there are BAD NEWS....
i680 and i780 will NOT support retail Yorkfield as I informed....
I hope they find a solution but I realy doupt about that.....

NVIDIA doesn't give licence for the SLI to INTEL, so INTEL is "playing tricks" with them with the new CPUs....
