With the one PCI slot i had to choose between sound or better video. The
PCI-X I have is not physically compatible with the a PCI card... it will not
fit the slot.

When Anandtech.com did their review, they used a PCI-X GeForce4 440 MX, so
they exist somewhere (even if only as engineering samples)

Thanks all

It says the boards comes with one "legacy" PCI slot. You could get a
Geforce4 MX440 PCI and plug it there, that is unless you already used the
slot for something else. I believe PNY makes a video card like that with
64mb of DDR ram.

Nope... most of the Opteron boards are server grade and don't have AGP
slots.

I bought this Tyan board

| Hi all,

|
| Anyone know where I can get a PCI-X video card at a reasonable

sound...
|
| Help? tia.
