I'm sorry. I forgot to mention the dual 1000Base-t Nics, the Ultra-scsi
320 card, and the really nice, black, Lian Li tower case with loads of
nice, quiet fans, 6x5.25 slots, 3x3.5 slots, and a hard drive caddy that
holds 6 drives with 2 fans blowing right on the caddy. :}
If it's any consolation, the board doesn't have an AGP slot for
secondary graphics. It only has pci and pci-x slots. As of yet, there
are no pci-x slot graphics cards. The graphics chip on the motherboard
seems a bit unstable as the screen seems to shrink and grow. It wasn't
doing this a month ago. But I did pick up a Radeon pci card yesterday
from MicroCenter that should go well with the NEC MultiSync P1250+
monitor I stare at when I work.
It was quite a step up from the dual PIII 500 I was using for the past 4
years.
