    depends on what your overall system goal is u want a SLi rig for all out gaming or just plan on one Video card? How big your Case is will it except a full ATX board?

    While I aint an Insmell Fan, you are looking at 3 different chipsets the Intell 965, nVidia 680i Ultra, or the nVidia 680i SLi

    take a look at Tom's Hardware Guide to review the different chipsets

    Make sure your read on your own and inform yourself and remember these are just my OPs

      Graphics card Id recommend is an 8800GTS 320 MB, base model dont buy the oc'd models as the price to performance dont add up to the extra $100 u might pay
