DQ6 Supports crossfire, though 4x on the second PCI-E channel.

I run the most extreme processor/memory/video card you can get, and the only MoBo I hear success with it, is the DQ6.

Personal experiance running this setup is a nightmare, and I am waiting for my DQ6 (my 3rd Mobo) which should be comming in on Wednessday.

Top of the line?
You only want a gigabyte board?
if not, you should consider the Abit AW9D max

Only gigabyte... sorry.

I havent had experiance with Abit, so I dont have much to compair it to them. But I know Ive seen reviews of the GS6 with the setup I have. Plus Ive been happy in the past with the company.
