Intel S5000PSL / PCI-e GPU Question

Thread Starter 
Anyone have one of these boards with a remotely current GPU in it? I am about to buy one but I read a forum post about how a lot of GPUs don't work on it. I want to throw a 9800 GT in it if possible. I tried Googling but couldn't find much info.

Well i've had a look and in theory it will work with most PCI-E GPU's.... It depends if you have riser cards in there or not.

Comps

I cant' see any PCI-E ports so I assume they will be on the 64bit PCI slot in a riser card.

It actually has 2x PCI-e 16x.

This is what I am referring to:

I did just find something else though saying someone got cards to work by disabling the onboard video.

Anyone have any first hand experience? I'd love to hear it from someone here before I spend a bunch of money on something I can't even use.

I am running an nVidia Quadro 2000D on my S5000PSL. Here's what I did:
  • Updated the BIOS (this might be your problem).
  • Added PCI-e riser card (required for 2U rack)
  • Added nVidia Quadro 2000D (no external power connectors on this card)
  • Booted into Setup, then disabled on-board video and dual display settings (does not affect external video cards)
  • Booted into Windows
  • Installed drivers
  • Downloaded and installed latest video drivers
  • Haven't had a hitch

Prior to that I had an older nVidia Quadro FX3400, which I had problems with. Turned out to be driver compatibility problems with Windows 7, as opposed to a problem with the hardware compatibility.

Hope that helps.
