For some reason I feel wrong about putting a ATI 4870 in my DELL 680i motherboard. Will this be a problem at all? Will it matter it only has PCIe x16 instead of PCIe 2.0?
 
You just won't be able to CF them otherwise they'll be like almost any other motherboard for the most part
 
I don't like SLi or Crossfire ^_^ Seems to cause more issues than its worth hehe.
 
It's about as wrong as putting an 8800 in a P35.
And who hasn't done that?
 
The 680i is a mobo first, and and SLI board second. No worries. It's not like you're going to run a 3870X2 in crossfire on a 680i.
