How about something like this P55 build? This build is set up for dual vid cards...I only added one to this build seeing how the DX11 cards are due out soon. The case has plenty of room, cooling/airflow.

well stuck between 1156 or 1366
main use gaming
and it all boils down to a couple hundred extra for 1366
what i don t understand is why the release of two different socket types with the same stuff basically right
 
It all comes down to how many GPU's will you be using.....

And it is not an extra coupe hundred between both, the only difference is the 70$ for the CPU and 40$ for the extra stick of ram..... =)

If you have the money get the 1366, if not then you still win cause the 1156 is a hell of a platform......There are 1366 mobos in the same price-range as the 1156 =)

The 1156 won't get the new GulfTown Hex-Core i9 processor Q2 2010.
The 1156 is much better for SINGLE GPU setups due to its on-die PCI-e 2.0 controller while it won't stand new high-end GPUs in SLI or CrossFireX
Intel Released 2 Socket types for different reasons one of them i know is to force the customers to choose one of them for ONLY ONE feature, For example the 1366 is for multi-GPU while the 1156 is for energy saving (Unique Features) So if you went with the lower-end one and wanted more sometime you'll have to switch to the other platform.

^^ @OvrClkr +1
Late Again!!!, I'll never learn.

Edit: +1 again = 2 (Positive)

Honestly I don't see the point of 1156 EXCEPT if Intel is planning to crank up the 1366 prices to make it for Ultimate RICH Enthusiastic Crowd :??:
 
Here's a nice i7 build set up for dual vid cards and it includes a gtx 275.

LoL [:jaydeejohn:5]

I think both are superb no matter what... if you are extremely sure that you will need/use the extra features on the 1366 then go ahead..... The 1156 holds it own in the GAMING dept.... Once the next gen cards drop, I bet the P55 and a 5870 will obliterate anything in it's path... Specially when you start bumping up the clock to 3.5Ghz and beyond.... So tempting I started to save up like a month ago and almost positive that soon i will have a new toy to play with.....

Good Luck with this one [:jaydeejohn:5]
PM me when you start your thread and I'll be there (On time,I Won't be late don't worry :D )

I Agree on that one (HD5870/1156) But he doesn't look like he's going to settle for 1 card.

Do you think they'll make it (Crank up the prices I mean), And what do you expect HD5000 series prices to be??

Well it looks like ATI don't want to beat nVidia I thought they learned their fault (AMD).
And if they want to get a good share of the market before nVidia launches GT300 they better lower the prices some like:
~249.99 HD5850
~389.99 HD5870
~599.99 HD5870X2
~849.99 HD5870X4 :D

To be honest I heard the prices will be like this and I expected them to be but I hoped you would tell us something confirmed that's different than this :??: But unfortunately this isn't how things work :??:

Else they won't get my business,... Um.. Second thought maybe a HD5770 or HD5850 would do it :)

What do you think will Intel do; CPUs' Prices, Chipsets' prices and other components, Do you think they'll increase them with the release of i5?

@screenfried Try "Why_Me"`s last posted build, It's good enough if you don't care about USB 3.0, SATA 6G or PCI-e 3.0 (Actually you don't have an option here!).
