He doesn't VH, if he knew about i7, he would know EVERY i7 board supports CrossFire, and that board by GB also supports SLI (With a BIOS update I think.)
Also, EVERY motherboard there supports CrossFireX, infact, they should all support QuadFire, with the MSI also supporting TriFire with 3 single AMD GPUs and all doing TriFire with an X2 GPU board and a single GPU.
See, Mitch isn't always right
.
In terms of the AMD CPUs, they're all the black edition ones, so grab an
Arctic Freezer 64 (If it supports AM3, will do some research into that) as the unlocked multiplier = awesome OC potential. (Although to hit mega speeds, the Freezer64 won't cut it, but I'm trying to keep the costs down here)
For the i7, the D0 920 (What is in spec #2) can hit 4Ghz easily on air (providing you get a good chip) but you will need to spend around £30 or so on a cooler such as the
Titan Fenrir (not stocked on MD) or the Prolimatech Megahalems (que the schoolgirl giggling, also not stocked on MD) but that is expensive and doesn't come with a fan (The Fenrir comes with a decent-ish fan.)
(Also, edited post so that the mobo link works, must be something to do with the spoiler tag messing long links up...)
