Oh, the vid card is the Matrox Parhelia 512. nVidia finally has some competition (don't even mention ATI)

The pic is of a hammer saying "toms hardware" and whats wrong with ATI cards?

"Hammer" was the codename, they released the real name last week, it's Opteron. ATI's driver support sucks, the 8500 is not a bad card but I couldn't get it to work with my system, their tech support sucks also.

The first link should be: http://www.theinquirer.net/bigopt.jpg It's a different pic, only a 2 proc board, the other was a four.
