Hey I'm looking into editing my rig's and I'm a rookie at it. I was wondering if you guys could tell me some things.
1. How do you install and a chipset?
2. It says that the DX58SO board is compatibile with the Core i7 Extreme but it doesn't say which of the two models. (965 or 975) Does that mean it's compatible with both models?
3. Motherboard handles 2 cpus and 4 gpus (it might be 3 gpus but 4 if possible)

1. you can't interchange chipsets, they're already soldered onto the motherboard (northbridge or southbridge).

2. yes its compatible with both if it says that.

3. The board you mentioned earlier only supports 1 CPU and up to 2 GPUs
