The MB for your build would be the Asus P6T S.E which doesn't have SLI capability but have 2 or more Crossfire capability that is $13 more than the MSI MB which have Crossfire capability without SLI so either 1 will do the job. Personally I would go with the P6T S.E mainly because of the tons of support that is virtually all over the net for the P6T & P7P55D series.
