I need a motherboard....

[Flerbizky]

I need some help finding a motherboard - I have a few simple requirements which can easily be fulfilled - Though not by the same board - it seems - Hope someone knows better...

• Socket HAS to be AM2
• 5 PCI slots (for 1 x Raid 5 controller, 3 x analog TV card, 1 x DVB-T Card)
• Gigaspeed network onboard.

2 out of 3 can be had, but as far as I've found, not 3 out of 3...

Thanx for helping out !...

Not gonna happen I'm afraid.


Get a PCI x1 card for one of those things and get a 4 slot one. Only way AFAIK.

Newegg agrees with Standard. I'll have a look on Tigerdirect, but I doubt they have anything either.

This is the closest thing, but you'd need a Socket 754 CPU.

I don't know how much power you'd really need for that, but the prices for a compatible CPU are under $70.

Socket 754 is a biggg step down from AM2. It's frankly not worth it.

Get a new card in PCI x1 and all would be well.
