Hi

i am an sli noob. pls forgive me for my ignorance. i am about to jump in to the bandwagon and build a system with quadro fx cards. i want to have an sli enabled system but i dont know which motherboard to buy. rightnow i am focused on buying Tyan motherboards with quad opterons. most of these boards have 2 x16 pcie slots but it does not mention it is sli compatible.

on making an sli enabled system what do i really have to look for in a motherboard? should i get a motherboard that is sli enabled already for example a one cpu opteron tyan motherboard K8E-sli or can i get a quad motherboard with 2 x16 pcie slot it doesnt say its sli enabled and put in the cards in there

thanks pls reply asap
