Currently I have a asrock 870 extreme 3 running a amd phenom II x6 1055t and a gtx 460, Im taking this mobo out to build my GF's computer, I want to get a SLI mobo which of these would be equivalent to my 870?

This my board and I love it. Feature laden and just the right mix of legacy. Crossfire ready!

Would that be card or should that be cards? Card and you're cool to go......cards and you're not?
I would just like to SLI, so having two nvidia cards would be nice but my board only cross fires?
The marginal gains of SLI only with some games when balanced with lower energy draw, heat and better performance with a singular higher grade card, along with zero frustrations of the set up have me changing my tune from Crossfire or SLI to single card only. In fact I'm thinking my next build will be a ultra micro ATX build with just this goal of less being more.....stay tuned.
