Hi,
I am looking for a new motherboard as the P8SCT only supports CPUs that=20
are no longer made. The PDSME+ has the multitude of PCI slots we need=20
and I am wondering if anyone has any experience with it?

I was thinking of pairing it with a 3ware 9650-2LP PCIe card - I note=20
there  was a recent commit to add support for that which is good timing=20
for us!

I plan on using the onboard video, does it work OK with X.Org? On the=20
P8SCT I had to disable acceleration otherwise I would get video=20
corruption. (The PDSME+ uses an ATI chip rather than i830 video though)

Any good or bad stories welcome :)

Thanks in advance.
