Most certainly not true, in fact the trend is going the other way, with some of the newer mobo's designed to support 4x graphics cards in parallell, they have more slots, all depends on which board you buy, full ATX or extendedATX will have the plethera of slots. I have linked to one below with 7 PCIx slots, if you do some searching you can find something that would suit your needs. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131390 Matt W8ESE ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
