That and the Intel Core i7-3770K Ivy Bridge 3.5GHz CPU.

Hope there's a DSDT for it sometime soon.
That board looks amazing, and sooo cheap too!!

I think I'm going to get one

Sorry, but this is pretty stupid thing to even think as PCI Core card itself is non-accel

What you say is indeed true, but maybe MSB Mastering didn't know that

Thanks guys. I know that the PCI core is non-accel, but it might have been the case that only people with HD2 systems were on PT HD10, and that others couldn't.
Either way, I'm relieved to not be excluded. I still want an accel card anyway as I can't run Impact at the moment, and it's amazing as a bus compressor live on an SC48.

Rock on

MSB - you CAN run PTHD10 with only a PCI "core" -- the accel card is not mandatory. I tested my rig with just a PCI core and it was just fine. Underpowered (as compared to with the accel card) but it still worked. I hope this helps.

Hey everyone,

Thought I would also mention (in case you are unaware) that if you are looking for a board and you are worried because a lot of them have a PCIe slot between two PCI slots and you cant get all your HD cards together for the TDM flex cables to plug in.

You can get TDM flex extenders from Bob Nagy,

See here:

It's cheap cuz there's not much to it. Very little on-board I/O, no video outputs (which is odd for a 1155 board), 5 SATAs, and pretty shoddy 2nd gen support (obviously not an issue if you go new). Probably not a lot of other new boards with 4 PCIx slots, though.

Well, linitx.com have the Jetway board in stock, although they've got two fewer than they had 2 hours ago. I'm happy. It may not be the best board out there, but it does what I need and I'll be able to build clones of my current really stable system.

I may also have an extender for sale if anyone's interested.

Who wants video onboard? I certainly don't!
I wont be using more than 3 SATA drives,

I don't understand what you mean about shoddy 2nd Gen support can you explain?

You don't need PCIX slots for HD cards they only use PCI bandwidth not PCIX this has been covered sooo many times.
