i bought the p5gc recently; it is the only board with 6x PCI, but without onboard graphics.
Well, I can plug a graphics card into that extra PCI slot.
There is also one extra PCIEx16 slot.
the only problem so far is the onboard realtek 8169 NIC -> works not with the ubuntu 7.10 default kernel! (the latest git kernel should work -> not tested yet)
That's a real pitty. I wonder if it will work with the default SUSE 10.3 kernel...
On Asus web there are drivers for linux (LAN, Audio) which are tested for kernel 2.6.21 and 2.6.22 - the need is kernel source and gcc.
The default SUSE 10.3 kernel comes with an r8169.ko module, so I would guess it should work.
