Which mobo for my ring ??

[vivepulicaci23]

After hours of research online i finaly decided this ring

Intel c2d 8400
2x HD4850 in CF
2X 2gb DDR2
1tb hdd
put these up and throw at 1920x1080

I am really confused with
Abit IX38quad GT

and ASUS p5q delux
http://in.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=11&l3=709&l4=0&model=2257&modelmenu=1

or ASUS Maximus II Formula
http://in.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3&l2=11&l3=709&l4=0&model=2166&modelmenu=1

I heard the 8x speed in p45 doesnt let down!!
I am stick with DDR2 thats why i didnt choose other options
Also suggest me a correct power PSU..
Thanks in advance

I wouldn't crossfire with a P45. If you do, you will only get PCI Express x8. If you get the P45 you should get a 4870 (1GB Memory) or a 4870X2...

Is the x38 good to handle crossfire ?
