The combination of 5x PCI-E slots with single PCI-X slot is interesting, as is support for Xeon Quad core processors. It's Intel5400 (seaburg) chipset.

We currently have a Core card and are thinking about crossgrading the PCI-E version, or just adding PCI-E Accel cards.

The main reason for the investment is orchestral realizations and other virtual intruments.

Any opinions? These serverboards are not exactly cheap!
