Ok, not sure why I haven't thought of this before, and I never thought I would be asking a hardware question (shhhhhh...) but like SLI you can use 1 CPU on a duel core cpu mobo at a time right? I was thinking about getting a fast graphics card (like 1 step down from the best) and a mobo that supports SLI and just buy the same card again once it gets slow for cheap about year or so down the road, then do the same with the CPU, when that gets old add the same CPU (instead of buying a new and better cpu, video card, and mobo). I guess I could look it up but other things come into play like how does it effect performance, how well it works with gaming and other apps, the cost of a mobo like that, how stable a setup like that is, etc....
Hmmmm does athlon 64 even support duel core? Guess that means I would have to convert to intel?
EDIT: Well damn, do they even have a 2 CPU and 2 Graphics Cards capable mobo out? I'm not seeing them...
