PCI 64 Motherboard
I just bought an 3Ware 9000S SATA raid board that is a PCI 64 board,
I know that it can work on a regular old PCI slot, but I would rather have it on a PCI 64 slot. Are there an motherboards for P4 that have PCI 64? Thanks Miguel

Thanks Miguel No, the system needs to be 64bit to have a 64bit PCI slot (funilly enough) You could gett a dual socket P4 board which would have one, or an Xeon in Itanium board. Why are you so desperate for PCI-64? SATA wont max out normal PCI hamman

Remember he wants the slot for a raid card. In some raid configs, sata can
max out normal PCI. --Dan "Hamman" wrote in message ... Why are you so desperate for PCI-64? SATA wont max out normal PCI hamman

I am not desperate, I just thought it would be "cool"  more than anything.Thanks Miguel

You're not a terrorist, are you? Jon

I am not desperate, I just thought it would be "cool" more than anything.They're mostly server boards and rather expensive but, for an example, here's a supermicro motherboard that meets your P4 and 64 bit PCI requirement. http://www.supermicro.com/products/m.../875/P4SCT.cfm 3 - 64 bit 66MHz PCI-X slots and 2 - 32 bit 33MHz PCI slots. Thanks Miguel
