all current 790FX are have the sb600 which can cause idle errors on phenom's, but not on X2's or semprons.

if he just need 4 pci express slots there was an intel board with 4 pci express slots MSI P6N Diamond LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 680i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard

if it doesn't matter that he dosen't want or will use SLI he could 4 9800GX2 on that board.

it's been done on an intel board.
