Which motherboard should I get?

August 19th, 2013

I need the motherboard to have CrossFire ready and I need it to support the i7 processors. Also, I want it to be able to support future hardware ( PCI Express 3.0, Ivy Bridge etc).
My budget: Around $350.
For those making a suggestion, please let me know if it will support my current processor.
Edit:
My processor is the i7 920 model which is the 2.67Ghz one.
Also, I’m running x3 5750s

Not possible. The socket type for the Ivy Bridge is completely different than the LGA1366.

Answer #6
You will need a new CPU too.
You can’t use the 920 in a newer generation motherboard.
And The GTX 570 can not use the extra bandwidth of pcie-3.0

Where do you see 570? Its Tri-Crossfire 5750.
