[QUOTE="imported_SuXoR, post: 164252, member: 7931"] If I were in your situation, I would get an SLI capable mb with pci express, and spend less on your video card. When you do have the money, get a 2nd card and run them in SLI. Pros of doing it this way: You will have current technology cpu and mb You will have current technology vid card You will not be stuck with a video card that will not do SLI (unless you get a crossfire mb and an identical card) and AGP is dead. Potential for greater performance when you get a 2nd card and run in SLI Cons: Initial cash outlay will be grater for a smaller gaming performance boost. You have to buy stuff at best buy (newegg - good prices and no sales tax) [/QUOTE]
