- Suggestions for a Dual Xeon Motherboard with these restrictions
- Posted by George Hester on July 11th, 2006
I would like to get a dual Xeon motherboard that supports the latest Xeons
and chipset from Intel. But this Motherboard I would prefer it not have
onboard sound nor onboard video controllers. Onboard network controller is
fine as long as it is Gigabit. I am not too specific here about the chipset
I really do not know what is best and I am hoping someone here could tell me
what your dream motherboard would be. Alos I hear that modern motherboards
are going to have onboard VRMs which is also what I would like so that I do
not have to go searching for additional components to make it work. This
will be my first machine building from the bottom up. Thanks.
