Hi, I recently acquired an i7 920, DDR3 RAM and 2 GTX 285's that I would love to run in SLI. I've been looking around but the only motherboards I see are very, very expensive. I'm seeing like $100+.

I was wondering if there were possibly any cheaper alternatives? I'm fine with anything that is used, and preferably is SLI compatible so I can run my 285's. Thanks!

For that socket, you can't get new, SLI-enabled boards.
Good SLI-capable motherboards cost that much, even if used, no matter what socket.
Using a board that utilizes DDR3, as you already own that, is a good idea, as DDR4 is really expensive at the moment (DDR3 as well, but, well, you already own it, as i said, right?).

I think $100 to $150 is a fair price at the moment, and I wouldn't complain (even though, checking for better prices on ebay is fairly easy, so...)
