High performance motherboard?
I am looking for a motherboard that can support more than 8 cores, I am looking for it to have a memory capacity of around 128GB, I have looked at TYAN boards, as they offer one, really im looking for advice from others as my idea of a machine may not be the best way.. I am used to making my computers using server boards... are these necessarily designed to a higher level than (mickey mouse) retail mother boards, or am I looking at the whole single cpu board in the wrong light...
Im thinking, as many cores as possible, at the highest speed possible, the most amount of ram possible, the fastest data rate hard drive possible, a good to high end graphics card, Nvidia 285? Gigabit for LAN.
Is fully buffered ECC better performance than normal non-buffered non-ECC RAM?
Will I gain any addressing speed if I choose FAT32 over NTFS?
Will hard drive Compression increase performance?

If you want pure speed use a ton of Solid State drives in a Raid Array.
I saw some colledge students do that with 22 Solid State drives and it encoded a complete 5.8 GB DVD in 1 1/2 seconds!
Fat32 is slower
HD compression saves space but does not speed things up

Compression, decreases performance. Because it has to decompress to run. Dual core and quads are much faster. Get a resonable quad 3.0 GHZ processor and 8 GBs of RAM coupled with your currant graphics and you'll be Zoomin'.
