Condescending bunch.......... I appreciate the update on the topic and or any alternative science that can or will improve our way of life.
Good post Steve.

Im not one to shoot the messenger here but how can I refer any of my clients to your website when you insist on checking your intellect at the door and before you give me your Howard Stern of hardware speech, Ill leave you with one word: Educate
In general I get a kick out of your...
Man-O-Man good stuff! If you yourself havent decided which board to use what are we to think? Is there something your not telling us? I went threw the UD5, pissed me off so I replaced it with the P6TD, left everything to auto because I need it to work (afraid to chance it). Was wondering why...
Am running with the SAS controller on the P6TD everything is good but would love to have room for an 8X card (two if I could) and 2 video, does it seem plausible with this board?
ASUS shined on the P6T D and other boards as well, (had to disable their wifi crap to get my other boards working but never bought those boards for that reason) sounds like they just expected the Nforce chip to work.
Am real impressed with you guys, holding off on your reviews until they get it right equals Integrity gentlemen, something we dont see every day .. In a mad rush to stay on top of technology its nice to have someone looking above the fog.
Would personally like to thank Kyle and everybody...
Sounds like RamGuy has been around the block and makes a few good points.
The Workstation logo puts us in a mindset on what to expect from a product and this is something different entirely. I can remember the last time I used an N-force chip on a work platform: They were all but the rage...
Took me a wile to think about it and for Intel to put it on their mobos speaks volumes. Wonder if game makers will only need to write code for the hydra chip since it controls the GPUs, either way can hear Nvidia squealing like a little piggy: Wee wee PHYSICS wee wee!:eek::D
Only 2 out of 8 (that I know of) motherboards made it past the sneak peeks. Not to give you a hard time (enjoy the HardOCP) but throw us readers a bone on the boards posted earlier (a month ago or so). Sneak Peek part 2
In the bios cant you allocate buss rates? The raid cards are 8X so one would need to set it at 16-8-8. The first slot is 4X and to put a raid card (8X) there is just asking for trouble.
Wow good stuff, thz LibertySyclone. A tough trade off, never been to keen about onboard crap anyway but it would have been nice to spare a coveted 16x slot.
Thank you too Dan.
Dan,
Do you know if the Marvell setup is more software based like the Cipricos Raidcore cards? Cant seem to get to much information on Marvell other than a sales pitch.
:s
Can live with two SAS ports and the rest can run off NAS.
Does anybody have any info/specks on ASUSs setup with...
