Suitable TV Server Mainboard (1 Viewer)

[Herr R aus B]

Hello!

I am looking for a suitable mainboard to set up a TV server. As I am planning on using a larger number of receivers this board should match the following requirements:

• 3 PCI slots
• 4 PCIe slots (1x)
• video on board (VGA will do it)
• 6 SATA ports
• 1 IDE connector
• AMD preferred (AM2, AM2+, AM3)

I shall be very happy if someone could give me some hints, because by now I didn't find such a mainboard.

Regards

Axel

You see, no board fills your specs.

Well, thanks for the hint!

But I found these:

Board 1 and Board2

Just have to make sure, that i can use a PCIe 1x device (TV card) in a PCIe 16x slot - theoretically it should be working...

Using x1 in x16 will work, but why not using a dual DVB card. Saves two slots.

Oh - I am talking dual tuner cards The setup should be 4 x Terratec 2400i dt, 2 x KNC ONE DVB-C and 1 x Hauppauge PVR 500 in one TV server.
