The Epox 9U1697 GLI motherboard that's passing through the PCSTATS test labs today is based on ULi's last chipset which was quite a sleeper, the M1697. Make no mistake about it, the Epox 9U1697 GLI motherboard is inexpensive but that doesn't mean it's a slow motherboard! Now here is the tricky part - while there are two PCI Express x16 slots on the Epox 9U1697 GLI motherboard, they do not officially support nVIDIA SLI or ATi CrossFire.
Dual videocards can be used for multiple 2D displays, like for workstation style applications - but that's it. Now that nVIDIA owns ULi, it's possible that it may eventually certify the ULi chipset as SLI compatible, but that is something you shouldn't bet on.

Overclocked Inside take the ASRock 939 SLI32 for a spin. If you feel the urge for AMD 64 Socket 939, check out this review.
"With the brandnew 939SLI32-eSATA2 Socket 939 motherboard ASRock shows once again,
that first-class motherboards do not have to be expensive and can also be suitable for overclocking.
In spite of the passive cooled chipset and default chipset voltage, this ULi based mainboard
hit a stable host clock of awesome 300 MHz.
All further results, details of the BIOS options, equipment and the conclusion
for this excellent price scoop are specified in the current Review and
in the motherboard overview with altogether 19 AMD Athlon 64 boards."

 Today on the test bench I have our 3rd ECS motherboard: the ECS C19-A SLI Pentium 4 (skt 775) Motherboard. What differs this board from our previous ECS boards is that the C19-A SLI is the first board from ECS to formally support NVIDIA SLI in an Intel Platform. Unfortunately it is only implemented as dual 8x pipes or a single 16x pipe for the PCI-e. But again: Budget.
