I definitely appreciate your input, but I think you may assume too much! Just because AT is a mostly gaming / overclocking place doesn't mean the folks here only know about that. I've built high end workstations, but admittedly never a 16 core "workhorse" as you call it Still, I wouldn't call such a machine slow by any means! Especially when it would undoubtedly wipe the floor with any desktop in the office when faced with encoding 1080p H.264 using x264!

I applogize. I kinda assumed it when you said this statement:

Hey everyone,

I wonder if its x16 slot works with a 9800GX2 ?

Anyway.. it's silly how many cores you can shove in one board these days. Imagine 4x8 core processors when they come out. Wow.

Personally id wait to see what neha rolls along with b4 you start busting budget. I gaurentee neha will have a 4 socket slot. And a octocore option with hyper threading.

(8 x 4) x 2 work threads.

*yummy?*
