Default Which chipsets support SLI?

Well the title is rarther self explanitory, I wouold like to know which motherboard chipsets support SLI, as I could well be upgrading to SLI later, however, I Iwas goinig to get a X38 board, however it seems like they don't support SLI, therefore, I would like to know which chipsets do support SLI, and opinions on whether it actually is worth it.

Thanks
