Best X58 motherboard with 3 PCI slots

[HilbertSpace]

Hi,
I'm wondering what the best motherboard is for support/stability that has 3 PCI slots, which could be a combination of PCI-X or PCI? Two of the PCI slots will be used for frame-grabber cards for cameras, and the third will be for a microscope stage motor controller.

I've only found 3 possible options:
ASRock X58 Supercomputer
ASRock X58 Deluxe 3
ASUS P6T WS Professional X58 - http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...nufacture=ASUS

Does anyone know of other possibilities, or which would be better? Anyone have experience with a PCI-e to PCI adapter?

Thanks for the help.

Or would people recommend going for a 1156 board instead, as it seems like there are a lot more options when trying to find 3 PCI slots?

Either of the asrock boards would be fine and if you look up reviews they have great reviews..unless you want to spend a boatload of money the asus is also a fine board but kinda pricey...

After doing some more searching, I've narrowed it down to the Asus P6T Professional, as I'm hoping the Xeon 5630 will work in it. I can't seem to find anything definitive on that though...

Update: I decided that the Asus P6T Pro and Xeon 5630 will probably be slower than a good 1156 board and i5 670. The main thing the current computer runs (that is slow) is Fast-Fourier Transforms (FFT) which I'm guessing are FPU operations. The application is single-threaded so ... I think an 1156 board will do. The FFT process hits the memory hard though, so that's why 1366 would be nice, but would it be needed?

Update x2: On looking at more benchmarks X58 is the way to go, so does anyone know of other X58 or server boards other than ASRock that have 3 PCI slots? or 2 PCI + 1 PCI-X?

Okay, after looking at reviews it's down to the following two options, as they are the only 1366 boards in existence that have 3 PCI slots. Gigabyte used to make one (GA-EX58-UD4) but I can't find it for sale anywhere.

ASRock X58 Supercomputer vs. ASRock X58 Deluxe3

Going with an i7 930 (and overclock it) and for RAM - Mushkin Enhanced Redline (3x2 GiB)

Any thoughts or upgrades possible to the above? Anyone used a CoolIT Freezone Elite with a 920/930?
