SLI Motherboard pros/cons?
What are the benefits EXACTLY of having SLI Motherboards?
Not SLI compatible motherboards, 2 Motherboards in SLI.
Because, obviously, a single motherboard can run SLI video cards.
So what's the benefit of having SLI motherboards over just 1 Motherboard.

Don't think it's even possible to have 2 motherboards in a home PC. Maybe if you build a super server or something...
Motherboards can't be "combined", you can put multiple motherboards in one case, but this just gives you two computers in the space of one, they would still be completely separate.

2 motherboards ??? Dream on. You won't get them to fit in one box, duh!
SLI (Scaleable Link Interface) is for running 2 nvivia gfx cards in 1 mobo, only benefit I can see is to run the latest games at really high resolution on a huge screen. Not much use to ordinary gamers imo except to line the pockets of vendors. You can be pretty sure that in 6 months a single card will be released that can whoop the a$$ off two previous generation cards in SLI, and use less power too.
Save your money for an upgrade later on.

The ability to run two (or more) nVidia cards in SLI, obviously. Are you clueless to what SLI is or something?
EDIT: "2 motherboards in SLI?" WTF? ...Yeah, clearly you're confused on what SLI is. Motherboards aren't conjoined in SLI, (nVidia) graphics cards are.
