    Damn i just bought the P5W DH.....but i like this one better.....
    First two slot come from the northbridge and should be pci-e 8x which current 975x motherboards also have.

    Any suggestions on how many pci-e lanes those two extra slots are? I reckon they are max pci-e 8x per slot, which would result in 4 times a pci-e 8x if you use them all.

    Can you use the extra pci express slot for storage controllers, instead of video cards.
    Thanks

    Offcourse, i am currently running a Promise EX8350 in one of the pci-e 16x slots of my Asus P5W DH Deluxe. Cuts the lanes to my vidcard to pci-e 8x though, but it works perfectly.

    If each pci ex on this board had 8 lanes or 16 lanes each. There no need for 64bit pci slots. Since pci express can replace.
    Thanks

    I wonder how much lanes all the PCI-E slots have, and where the bandwith for the extra slots comes from.

    Why are you complaining? That's why they have 2 boards - P5WDG2-WS Pro if you want PCI 64 bit, P5W64-WS Pro if you don't need 64 bit PCI, but want lots of PCI-E.
    ....

    I am just making some thoughts . I already have the P5WDH and when i saw the "WS" letters on the model , i thought that it would have the 64bit slots ...
    The WS Pro doesn't have 4 PCI-E slots ...

    10 monitors. One 6200 must go because X1950XTX is dual slot. If you change the cooler then you can make it fit though

    x1950 is a dual slot and i dont think 6200's have dual link dvi
    Would be a good way to waste an insane amount of cash though.
