1. What is SLI ? What is advantage of having an SLI enabled board ?
2. What is difference between PCI-e x1, x4 and x16?
3. If a board doesnt have a firewire, would I need one in future ? Wont USB be sufficient ?
4. How much expandibility should I look for in a board ? ASUS A8N-E has just 3 PCI slots, no FW but has two PCI-e x16 and one PCI-e x1 and x4. Can these PCI-e slots be used like PCI ?
