Hi, I'm thinking of getting an AMD Phenom II x4 processor in my upcoming build, and I was wondering if you could recommend a good motherboard combo that will allow me to crossfire with both slots running in x16 as opposed to x8. I found this combo:
Newegg.com - Computer Parts, PC Components, Laptop Computers, Digital Cameras and more!
However, I don't really think I'm going to oc much, so I don't need such a good ocing board. Is there a cheaper combo I can get with a good board to fulfill my requirements. Initially I'm going to be running just one 4890, but, in the future, I plan to add a second one. I was going to get this combo: Newegg.com - Computer Parts, PC Components, Laptop Computers, Digital Cameras and more! but the second slot is x8.
