to save money DS3R is the choice but the only thing is that it doesn't have PCI-e 2.0. I'll have to check the prices for X38-DS4 and X38-DX5, if they are too expensive then i'll get ASUS P5E... Ok back to topic, it seems that 3-Way Sli is having issues with Crysis: http://www.tomsgames.com/us/2008/02/08/crysis_3waysli/ and guess what guys, you can mix HD3870 and HD3850 together, and it performs nearly as good as HD3870 CF: http://www.fudzilla.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=5641&Itemid=1 imagine HD3870 X2 and HD3870/HD3850 CF will do, it should be interesting, but i don't think it's worth it, anywho mix cards is new not even Nvidia can do it. Will this be the new generation of Mix CF or even SLI if thats possible?
