Motherboard suggestions?

[Nitemare]

I want a motherboard that would work well with all of my components and give me good performance.

I was looking at the DFI LANParty NF4 SLI-DR, but I don't really know anything about motherboards. This is what I will eventually have in my system:

AMD Athlon 64 4000 San Diego
2 GB (2x 1024mb) OCZ Platinum Series 2-3-2-5
2x XFX 7800 GTX's (490/1.3)
Audigy 2 ZS
Antec Truepower 2.0 Truecontrol II 550 Watt SLi Certified

DFI is one of the top rated boards, plus it leaves u the option of overclocking in the future.

Abit Fatal1ty SLI board. Best OC and performance boards (or one of the best I should say, so I don't get corrected by all the product nazis around here).

MSI K8N Sli, really a great board, not nearly as picky as a dfi, and it should definatley work with everthing you got.

Re: Motherboard suggestions?

Yup only thing I will warn against. DFI has a good board, but they are extremely picky too.

What about Nvidia's nForce4 versions?

The MSI is a nforce4 mobo, the other ones are too, as far as I know.

They're all nForce SLi.

Ok so my options are between the DFI and the Abit...I currently have an MSI board and I think it's limiting my performance. I don't know what else it could be, so I say it's motherboard :)

It's probably not the MOBO. More likely user error.

Ok then what could it be? I have most recent drivers for every piece of harware, I have done multiple reformats, I have a pretty good system..
