Motherboard sli to fit in case with 2 evga 650ti's

[Seanb1888]

hey guys im new to the forum. and new to building computers. I have put together a not bad little rig, but want to upgraded my mobo so I can sli 2 evga 650ti boosts, I do not have a clue when it comes to mobo, all I do know is the one I have I cannot sli. anyway as cash is tight I cannot upgrade my case right now, I have a predator x 1 mid tower. I would like to get a mobo that has sli. that would fit both graphics cards in this case, dose anyone know what mobo would fit? also would a corsair 700w psu be enough power for this to work. my rig specs are evga 650ti with amd fx 4170 overclocked at 4.50ghz, 16gb of ram, windows 7 premium, thanks if anyone can help

You will need a cpu and motherboard for sli, preferably Intel i5. Otherwise you will bottleneck your gpus. Why don't you just get a better single gpu?

is a amd fx 4170 no good enough for sli. didn't think I would need to update my cpu, was planning in getin a mobo that would fit in this case with a corsair 700 psu and another evga 650ti, would this bottle neck?

Dual cores don't do well with sli or crossfire. Your fx4170 is more like a dual core that can address 4 threads like the i3. It would probably be better if you got a GTX760 http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1a7XI or a AMD7950 http://pcpartpicker.com/p/1yjPA . With these you most of the performance without the sli hassle.

You can sell your current card and get some money back.
