Why get a SLI motherboard?

Hi All

Am looking at new motherboards and am interested to know if it is
worth getting a SLI motherboard.

Are they basically good for gaming only or are they benificial for 3D
applications also? I am not into gaming etc but looking to get into 3D
applications...

Is there a benifit with SLI for 3D apps..?

Thinking over getting an Intel chip set over a nVidia chipset.
