Sorry- forgot to answer the hybrid crossfire question- its crossfiring the integrated graphics with whatever graphics card is added, and is really not worth doing in general.
As far as needing all 6 GB RAM and stuff, sure it's be nice, but when you can't find the hardware, you can't find the hardware. I would suggest you look around a bit more on various sites, and even do the Newegg "notify me when back in stock" thing or whatever, but I can't spend tons of time trying to find a motherboard, sorry.
