Attached Link: Nvidia page for certified boards

650i chipset a big NO! Don't step back get current, can't stress 680i enough!

Again, that board isn't listed as certified. There are two Abit boards on the list but not that one.
Nvidias list use to have more boards listed, but got smaller with time. SLI is thier baby and
as development went along the 680i is the top of the dual SLI chips. Now they're getting into
the tri SLI and 700 chips.

The Abit they list is the "Abit IN9-32X (SBIOS=M622a 11.B01) the bios # indicating it needs
flashing. I have a abit comp running, I still use it and it's 10 years old.

But bottom line I'd difinitly be looking to get a 680i board and not a 680i LT, why step backwards
The MB ties everything together and you want the best there.

Tiger Direct has a EVGA 680i listed for sale

If you looking local for the board see if you can find a "BFG NVIDIA nForce 680i SLI"
This board again is an EVGA 680i A1 with BFG on it 8-)
BFG is rather the newkid on the block, but I like em. Even have one of thier video cards.

But what ever you do don't settle for what they got, get a 680i even if you have to have it
shipped. In the EVGA forums I've seen some guys in europe waiting weeks for thier order
to arrive tho.

Keep us posted with you progress  8-)
