Well, here it is then. Tell me if it works together or not. I have windows 7 already and I am not overclocking. Planning to have SLI with another 580 later.

I need to buy this today or tomorrow.

Thanks

As stated, that does NOT work together. Try This motherboard.
Also, do you have any Sata cables? Your mobo should come with a couple, but some don't so I would not rely on that.
I would grab two of These
You may also want a beefier PSU, should you ever feel like adding another video card. This one should do. Also, it's modular so you will have less of a cable mess.
Also, that comes with a few fans, but you may want to add more.
Straight from CM's website...

So this motherboard doesn't work with my other hardware?? I changed my mind about SLI, I'm not going to do it. Am I still okay?

As for the SSD, my budget is much smaller now than it was. The OS and my music editing software is all I will put on it.
 
Ugh, well shoot. It's already gone thru. I'm thinking my only option is to send it back once I get it then... Its already been shipped...I sent an email to newegg about what are my options. I'm hoping I can return it and get the correct one with only paying the difference.

Is there anything less expensive than this MB

I won't be having SLI so I'm hoping there is.
 
newegg is pretty good, i think they will take it back adn you will get 100% of your money back, no worries really.
