Does anyone who has it, or knows..............will all my 3rd part mesh and
scenery, ultimate traffic and ultimate terrain, and Active Skies, work with
fsx, or will I have to buy more?

Steph,

Out of the box the answer is mostly no.

Many of the 3rd party developers you mentioned have announced plans to
update their products for use with FSX. Depending on effort they could
be free patches or some might require an upgrade fee. FSGenesis have
already released an FSX mesh package for North America and ActiveSky
will be updated to v6.5 soon for FSX. You should check websites and
support forums for each of the addon products you own to confirm their
status re FSX.

5. seeking hard to find motherboard (for fsx and other purposes) 

I currently own a P5Nt deluxe by asus.. i'm searching for a different
motherboard, hopefully one by asus, but not necessarily.. i have some
stiff requirements and these are making it hard to meet the goal..

I need to be able to support two graphics boards in non-sli or non-
crossfire mode, so whether it supports sli or crossfire doesnt matter,
though i'd like to go from a 4850 single slot to 4870 dual slot.. i
just ordered the 4850s.. but i'm thinking the 4870 would be a better
bet (the whole FSX thing).. i'm thinking they'd be better than the
9800GTX, but maybe not the gx2(cant recall the exact name here) etc..

But back to the topic...

I need a board that can take two dual pciex16 2.0 graphic boards that
are dual slot.. also have a pciex4 slot for my raid card, then ontop
of this, also be able to fit one pciex1 (asus xonar audio card) and
one other pci video capture board (and even more ideally, one more
available pciex1 slot)

So :

Pciex16 v2.0 x2 (dual slot)
Pciex4 (1 slot)
Pciex1 (1 slot)
PCI (1 slot)

Essentially to here, this amounts to the equivalent of 7 slots in
itself..

then as a bonus, yet another pciex1, but this is reaching.

It also has to take 1066 ram and fsb max of 1333 and take 45nm q9650
3.0ghz cpu..


I'm having a hard time finding this match, so i could in fact go dual
slot on graphics.. at least, keeping the price at say $250 or less..

Onboard sata only needs to have about 6 on average, though i could get
away with 4 too, plus an esata.

A coax audio out is desirable, though i think the xonar hdav1.3 in
addtion to hdmi does coax out, but i could be wrong.

Any one know of one offhand :)

Cheers
