What's the supposed newer version of this coming out? Does the new one have PCI-E at least x8? Because x4 seems... worthless.

question..can i have a regular hd and an sata hd connected at the same time on this mobo? reason i ask is i want to copy the os etc from the current hd to the sata hd i'm getting. any tricks to getting the sata to show up in bios aside from the controller is sata not sata2 so i need to set jumpers for 150 m/sec transfer instead of 300 for the drive to be detected. (that leads to another question..it's probably on the site but whether the quad core board version has sata or sata2 controller)
thanks again for help.
(checked and another disappointment on the quad 4 board as it says sata controller..too bad)

thanks for the info, orbiter..i'll keep that in mind if it isn't detected on my 1.80 version of bios which i'm quite happy with. i'm assuming they are running in sata not sata2 mode? correct?

Has anyone successfully used an x1950Pro or x1950XT PCI-express with the 775dual-VSTA? I know the supported VGA list is available, but it only lists GeCube cards for the x1950, and I don't know if they actually test all manufacturers, like HIS, Sapphire, or Jetway?
Just curious. I would really like to replace my x850xt pe with a 1950xt, but I would like verification that it will work before purcahasing.
Any thoughts?

A friend of mine has a Powercolor X1950Pro working just fine with his 775Dual-VSTA.

Do happen to know if he has an AGP card or a PCI-Express card? If it is PCIE, that is very good news. Thank you.
Since neither the board nor chipset is the cause of the incompatibility, I doubt there would be any change. These GPUs won't work on PCI Express slots that operate @ 8x or 4x lanes, apparently.Originally posted by: flevio
is there any change in incompactibility with the new 8800gts 320 or its the same with old 8800 series?
