    Up till now, Intel chipsets supported ATi CrossFire; chipsets for AMD Socket939 supported nVidia SLI.
    Now nVidia is getting into Socket775 - and ATi is taking on S939 :^)
    I have noticed that Pentium dual-core support can be 'iffy' with nVidia chipsets. Intel chipsets are a sure thing (but no SLI...)
    Kinda tough to 'get it all' eh 444?
    You probably don't want a D-805; it is little better than Celeron-type performance, 133MHz x 20 = 2.6GHz.
    The 133(533QDR) FSB is a step backward - choose a D-820 (or D-920) for modern dual-core performance on 800FSB that is still affordable.
    They cost less than Athlon x2 (but slower, too).
    Regards
