No crossfire? No fun.

Great board for the price. You can get another $11.5 off if you know how to use Bing cash back.
#1, if you have money to play crossfire, you should pay more for a better mobo.

I have this board. Love it.

Just use this. GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3P LGA 775 Intel P45. It is $15.00 more. I have it and it is running great.

gigabyte is a very good manufacturer. that mobo is awesome though from what ive heard from people. just got one of their cheaper mobos for like 50 bucks. little bit strapped on cash

I run this motherboard with an E8500 CPU, 8GB G-Skill PC2-1066 RAM and 2 640GB WD Black drives in RAID 1 with VistaHP 64-bit. Great performance, no hiccups. I'd definitely buy again.

nice input.. thanks.

I have this board as well. It is incredibly stable as a base for a midrange system. The ud3p is a cheap upgrade over this board, but if you don't need xfire or dual lan then you can save a bit of money. It's also a nice looking board if that matters to you.

Hey #2, in fact I only paid $52 for the tiny S series G31, for practice. Nest build will be a bigger gun, and yes, crossfire
