[laracroftlover]

OK I have two CHAINTECH VGA512C-SE76GS GeForce 7600GS 512MB 128-bit GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Video Cards and they are SLI ready but I need to know what motherboard to use, so what motherboard would you recommend. O, i have a Intel Core 2 Duo E6700 Conroe 2.66GHz 4M shared L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor too :) .

For Intel and SLI, the only way to go is the 680i chipset on the Asus P5N32E-SLI motherboard. I don't want to rain on your parade, but two 7600GS cards won't really blow you away. You get more bang for the buck with one higher end card.

now I can get out of having two CHAINTECH VGA512C-SE76GS GeForce 7600GS Video Card but I will have to keep one of them, so what Video Card with SLI do you recommend besides the GeForce 7600GS then. (try to keep it in the range of 100-200$) or can i even do that with two different cards

[laracroftlover]

can i mix a CHAINTECH VGA512C-SE76GS GeForce 7600GS 512MB 128-bit GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Video Card with a EVGA 256-P2-N550 -T2 GeForce 7600GT 256MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card

Nope, SLI requires two cards with equivalent GPUs. So you can't mix a 7600GS and a 7600GT. Personally, I would use the one card for awhile and save up for a more powerful card to upgrade to later. The 7600GS is a fine card.

No point in spending money on two mid to low range cards when one higher end card for equal or less cost will beat it.

Either get a 680i motherboard, which I wouldn't suggest, or get a decent intel chipset motherboard and upgrade the 7600gs when need be.

Asus P5B is a good choice for this.
