Looking for a motherboard that supports socket LGA1156 as well as dual DVI for my two monitors. The motherboard needs to support the following, preferably without an external GPU:

- Frequent use of MS Office applications
- Occational use of 1080p HD movies and other media (though no BluRay)

However, I can't seem to find a motherboard with access to dual DVI ports. Any hints?

Intel also claims support for DisplayPort with audio, but we've nothing yet in our lab to test this, and we've also yet to see any motherboard or portable device with dual HDMI ports too. Intel did firmly state Clarkdale can run two independent digital outputs, however on many motherboards we see the usual digital switcher that means you have to choose between DVI and HDMI. We'll have to keep an eye on this one because we suspect the second digital output is only available by using an external TMDS at extra cost.

I'd make certain before pulling the trigger. It is beyond me why these review sites can't verify simple things like this in a clear-cut manner.
