I'd get a Intel based mobo if your not going to have a SLI solution. BTW, I recently picked up 2 8800GTS 512s from XFX, for 100 bucks less than the price of a regular GX2. XFX actually will uphold the warrenty, even if you overclock. Therefore, I plan to OC the cards to the core clocks of the 9800GTX, which according to a bit of research on the series of tubes, appears very possible. Just a recommendation for ya.

Also, swap that Q6700 for a Q9450. If you can't find it, there are a bunch over at Micro Center Online.
