With the AMD Phenom processors dropping in price hand over fist, some great deals on AMD ATI Radeon HD 3800-series graphics cards to be found... could MSI's K9A2 CF make now a good time to invest in that Spidery thing?

Quote: "The MSI K9A2 CF provides excellent value as the cheapest multi-GPU, PCI-Express 2.0 board you'll find on the market today. The fact it’s not based on the premium chipset in its range means it isn't faster than a 790FX motherboard, but it still keeps up with the crowd and overclocks like a monster if you have the CPU to match.

For £60, it's an exceptionally capable and very stable motherboard that also has a solid BIOS at this early stage in the 790X’s life. Considering the fact that Phenoms are dropping in price hand over fist and the Radeon HD 3850s and Radeon HD 3870s are good buys already, this board is a perfect addition to an inexpensive upgrade to quad-core and DirectX 10."
