If you want SLI then i guess in your budget,this is the only option,its not a TOL board but its a very nice board with excellent OC options.

Well , it'll give u more control on the oc i think .. so if u need a good oc'ing mobo , then definitely get it .. other options include the P5B and the DS3P ..

Well the most interesting part about 650 and 680 boards is unlinked memory clocking.It can be like a god sent gift for Indian clockers who find it hard to get hold of GOOD performance RAM and have to be content with value ram.

But even then ... for a CPU with 8x or above multiplier .. 1:1 is really recommended for the best performance ... so in some cases u'll actually be better off with linked mem. oc'ing .. specially since u'd probably hit 333 MHz FSB easy with ddr2-667 ram ... plus consider the sudden drop in RAM prices ..
