Is the board a BH6? Yes
Did you know that they claim it will only support 2 video cards?

Of course I did not know that the BH6 would only support 2 video cards :-(
I just figured it has 5 PCI slots so it should work.

The plan was to use 3 Diamond Viper V330 PCI cards and NT
according to the Diamond site you can use up to 4 cards under
NT if all the cards were PCI

I have received 1 card so far from Buy. Com .....I placed 3 separate
orders because of a $ 30 rebate ......when I placed the orders for #2 and
#3 they did say that they were in stock but a shipping date has yet to
be confirmed and now on there site they claim the are out of stock so
I am not sure if the other 2 cards will be sent any time soon.

I think if I had to do this over again I would just go with 98 and
ATI cards for the 3 monitors .....but then again I still don't even have
the computer yet and if it does work out the way I had hoped
maybe all this aggregation will be worth it.
