I am considering a single board and a dual board. I don't knnow what the 440GX is exactly, and what other features to look for. Is it ideal to go with SCSI hard drives since the system will be pretty powerful anyway?

The i400GX chipset is functionally the same as the BX chipset, except that it supports Slot 2 (XEON) processors and 2GB of RAM. The BX chipset only supports 1GB.

XEONs are Slot 2....you won't find much overclocking functionality on these boards.

You might want to check out the ASUS XG-DLS motherboard.
