Planning new build

[28 noobs later]

Hi guys, I have a quick question. Right now I'm rocking the rig in the sig, and it does everything I need, but I get bored quickly, and like to waste money so I'm planning a new computer build.

I know the 780i I have sucks for RAID, and I'm definitely going to go 3 or 4 OCZ Vertex's in RAID 0.

My question is, what would you guys reccomend for a new motherboard?

My requirements are:

SLI capable (graphics whore, sorry )
i7 compatible
equal or above in every other department compared to my 780i

As far as RAID, I'd like to push the vertex's to the max. Is there a mobo out there with good built in RAID, or am I going to have to buy some hardware to run it? If so, what would you recommend as good stuff (somewhat reasonably priced )

An Asus or Gigabyte x58 Board with the ICH10 chipset should be fine.
I think it maxes out at around 600mbs so that should be right on par with 3 vertexs. for more speed than that you are going to have to buy a hardware Raid Card like a Areca 1231 or something with higher speeds.

Right now I'm rocking the rig in the sig,

What sig?

Anyway, I concur with nitrobass24: Just about any Asus or Gigabyte X58 mobo will fit your needs nicely.
