Quick question, does the intel X58 motherboard (as seen in this computer Newegg.com - HP Pavilion Elite E9290F(AU850AA#ABA) Intel Core i7 920(2.66GHz) 9GB DDR3 1TB NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit - Desktop PCs )

support dual video cards? I plan on building a computer and I have heard good things about this motherboard, just nothing about it supporting 2 graphics cards.

Thanks!

1 PCI Express x1 (occupied)
2 PCI Express x16 (one available)

Yes it does, but not sure if its SLi compatable.

Plus this thread should of been posted here instead

Just an FYI for the future mate

X58 Chipset - Tri Channel DDR3

P55/H55 Chipset - Dual Channel DDR3

(In relation to the i-series as i7 covers many platforms.)




Basically if the CPU is an i7 920 / 930 / 940 / 950 / 965 EE / 975 EE / 980X then it should be triple channel, anything else and there's a 99% chance it should be dual channel.
