For multi-GPU on a P35 the HDx870X2's (3 or 4 series) are the only way.
Also need to watch for dead air issues in the card cage area on some cases with these
beasts.
No matter what, avoid Sapphire!!!

hi,
Your P35 chipset mainboard doesn't support SLI, it DOES support
crossfire, you can run a pair of radeons (the X2 notwithstanding, whilst
that uses crossfire, it's a single board and will work on anything with
a PCI-E slot) but a second Geforce will only operate in a "drive another
monitor" capacity
the 4870 1GB is also a very big performance hike over an 8800GTX, but
the 4870X2 is totally in a world of it's own as far as sheer
maximumfastness goes.
One thing to watch for is, a full length dual height heatsink can cause
issues with SATA ports...
*googles*
Looks like your ports are out of the overlap zone though.
My P5K-E/Wifi-AP is.. not so lucky :(
