This is pretty much the only option I have now due to varies reasons. I'm also gonna get a Sapphire X850XT for this system. Tell me what do you think about the motherboard, thanks.
lol the thing is that my PSU's motherboard connector is 20pin, not 24pin, the EPox and MSI boards use 24pin connectors, that's why I said that the Gigabyte board is pretty much my only option cuz it uses 20pin connector.
Then, I'd highly suggest buying another PSU. For nF4 U & nF4 SLI, it is recommended to have a 24-pin motherboard, since you need all the power you can get.
Some good PSU's include: Antec TruePower 550W Antec NeoPower 480W OCZ ModStream 420W OCZ ModStream 520W

Let's just say that getting another PSU is not an option right now, my PSU is a Thermaltake 480W w/ active PFC, I think the mobo should work just fine cuz it was designed with a 20pin connector in the first place.
Just thought I would jump in and state that the 20 pin power supply will work just fine with the motherboards with the 24 pin plug. They are made to be backwards compatable. I would suggest getting a board with the 24 pin connector so you can upgrade the PS later on.
