Yes you're right it makes sense to get a SLI ready mobo. I think I will go with the x58.. heck I'll just get the bundle and SLI it if it comes down a bit..hehe

as for the CPU, the Q6600 or Q8200? Also the x58 mobo is ready for i7 too so when the time comes I don't have to switch out the mobo for that also. But I guess when that time comes.... I will build a brand new one with new mobo lol..

Since I will be getting the new mobo, will be looking at DDR3 memory, OCZ or some other brand? How's Patriot?

and for the cooling, do I really need extra cooling or will it run fine in normal room temperature? and how does the water cooling system work?
