As the title says. Looking to build a machine based on these, so what's the best price/performance value in the x2's, and their sli mobos? TIA

oddly as it sounds

if you can get it to work (as its finicky) the asrockk 939 is sweet and cheap for me at least works well (havent tried the other boards though )

oh and I have 3800+ x2, running at 2.4ghz 1:1 if that helps

It looks like all of the SLI boards appear to be good mobos. The question comes what features are you looking for and are you going to overclock?

Hey, my Neo2 works as good as my neo4 for OC'ing.
