I see that the 9800GX2 uses an internal SLI setup and my motherboard is the Asus P5B Deluxe(which isn't an SLI board). So question is, am I now screwed and am I losing performance that I could have were I to put it in a SLI ready motherboard?

What mobo has to do with this? 9800GX2 has internal SLI and internal SLI chip.

It works w/o performance losses.

Yes that's one of the major appeals of this expensive card-only sli option for those with Intel chipsets (barring Skull Trail of course).

So in other words, you should be just fine.
