Any Quad Core Dual 8800GTX Non-680i Boards out there?

[eatcarrotsnow]

Hi all,

I've had nothing but trouble with my 680i since I got it. I'm looking for a rock solid platform for both the QX6700 and dual 8800 GTX's. I can deal with less overclocking if it runs stable. Any boards or chipsets that fit that description?

Thanks,
EC

Only 680i, 680iLT & 650i SLI chipsets can officially run SLI with a C2D/C2Q.

Any of the 650i sli mobos will fit. Choose one with solid capacitors around the cpu and above three phase capacitors.

Always put a fan on top of the nb heatsink when ocing.

im using a relatively inexpensive MSI P6N SLI Platinum mobo. i've been able to oc my q6600 up to 2.8 ghz (from 2.4) but i don't think it's the mobo that is limiting my oc. So far, it's been a great board for me. some people have their gripes about the previous quality of msi, but really this board seems fine to me...
