Need advice on video card selection

Hi, I'm looking to upgrade my workstation to Woodcrests 5160 probably using 5000x chipset with support for full x16 PCI-E, but I found myself in a weird situation on picking out the card. Here's the thing. I'm looking for a graphics card that will give me great performance but I am aware...

Woodcrest Motherboards?

Are there any Woodcrest motherboards with full x16 PCI-E, I looked at Newegg and it seems that all that I see have x8 PCI-E at the most? This is weird.

So what's the deal with Xeon 5080

Well I should expressed myself better. I'm impressed with Woodcrest, I just wasn't impressed with certain performance improvement over Optys 285 in certain things. I was expecting much bigger peformance gap and not only 5-10%.

So what's the deal with Xeon 5080

Can someone point out to some benchmarks or something regarding the latest Xeon Dempsey 5080 3.73Ghz with 4mb cache. This processor seems very interesting and I'm wondering if it's better buy then Opterons 285s. I'm getting to upgrade my dual proc machine and want the best. I wasn't that...

Please build me a workstation

Well this machine is not going to handle primarily video. It's more for web development, graphics, Flash..but having to do a lot of special effects for web sites, I use a lot of those video editing apps and 3d. Anyone else with recommendations? I'm wondering if new Woodcrest Xeons will be...

Help me with tips about Nvidia 6200 PCI and ATI X800 XT PE work right in the same PC

Siwy, 7800GS SuperClocked is not slower then X850XT? I get around 100 fps in CS:S at 1680x1050 with 4xAA 4xAF all high. I got 60-70fps framerates on my X800XT PE at 1280 resolution. Trust me it's actually faster. I do agree that a lack of second DVI is a big drawback but the picture on my...

6200OC seems like a VERY nice card. I had ATI 9250 in there and it was INCREDIBLY slow. 6200OC works great. Don't play games though, but read reviews on NewEgg or somewhere else. I think people are having solid framerates. My card is BFG 6200OC 256 TurboCache DirectX 9.

I don't think so..I think their drivers are actully optimized to support more then 1 card..even if it's AGP and PCI..They had SLI for a while now and they ironed out the drivers..ATI on the other hand did not, thus problems. Don't forget they also have X2 Quadros..so I'm pretty sure I won't...

Hey Siwy, If you would be so kind and maybe post more clearly how I would define the order of services. I just can't figure out what they are saying there. Btw, the cards seem to run in full speed. However, I just got sick and tired of screwing around and got a faster 7800GS SuperClock...

I think I found a solution. I'm successfully running the AGP card as primary now, no error in display properties and everything works cool. Here's what happened. I installed both Nvidia Forceware and Catalyst. After reboot I couldn't activate the NVidia card because the Forceware refused...

Yeah Siwy, I have a Radeon 9250 in PCI here too but it just doesn't work right even with another ATI card in there. I've read through forums and ATI support and they say that problems with 2 ATI cards in the system are almost a certainty because the driver cannot handle two different cards at...
