Not currently, it's NVidia only... If ATi follow suit it'll be about 6-12 months before it makes it's way to us. Multithreaded coding takes major time, and NVidia has been working on theirs for over a year.

you guys talking about platform drivers or graphics drivers here

i've got the Expert board coupled with a dual core Opteron and X800NP card.....i'll be doing some testing with 3DMARK05......initial test at stock looks good...i'd say i'll be giving my 2.9GHz Opteron score a good hard run for its money with 2.6GHz dual core Opteron

Yeah the average opty dual core will do 2.7ghz and the average opty will do 3ghz so do a test with those speeds
