had this for best part of a year or so now, looking at upgrading the M/B with a newer USB 3.0 and SATA 3.0 board. Any Suggestions??
also considering HD5970's in crossfire but Nvidia fermi cards could be out in a short while so might wait till then.

Great looking system alphanumeric. I've got your profile updated so it'll have the SBCC icon. As far as the motherboard not sure why you'd want or need to update that motherboard and personally don't have any suggestions on an alternative to that nice motherboard. But it's likely someone on the forums could.
