New & first build.
I've got a GTX8800.
I want to purchase a P5B Deluxe/WiFi-AP.
I noticed on the website it mentions ATI Crossfire. Does this mean that a Nvidia SLI gfx card won't work? Don't plan on running 2 cards, do I need to look for SLI "branded" MB's?

THX!
 
You don't need an "SLI" motherboard if you only plan on running 1 card and likewise you don't need a "Crossfire" motherboard to run 1 crossfire-ready card.

The GTX8800 will work fine, as long as your case is large enough to accommodate it.

Yeah, and a PSU that can handle the load.
No worries, I'm using a 850W PSU in a CM Stacker 830.

From what I've gathered, you're stuck with a nForce board for SLI.

Thanks.
