This is a link to NewEgg. I am trying to deside on what motherboard I want. The thing is that I dont want to run SLi because (2nd video + 600Watt Powersource + more expensive motherbrd = $$$$) and I dont have that much money to spend. Then while browsing through newegg I found M2n-E motherboard, so my question is. Is SLi the main difference between these boards, because if it is I'd rather spend extra $50 on additional memory or buy a better video card then get
M2n-Sli which I wont use to its full potential.
Thank you very much, tell me what you think. ;)
 
SLI is the main difference. However the sli also has a 2nd ethernet port, fire wire and what looks like an external sata.
 
id get the cheaper one the one that doesnt support SLI but you wont have firewire port or lan

And your reasoning is... :confused:

I would agree with that though, unless you plan on using this computer as a gateway between two networks then you don't need the 2nd ethernet. However if you need firewire then you have to buy a pci card and then you aren't saving quite as much money. But the regular one does seem better for what you said you wanted it for.
 
Thank you very much!
I desided to go with M2N-E, cuz its cheaper and as good as M2N-SLi. So since I dont need SLi, Firewire or 2nd Lan I will be happy with <E>.
