Re: [Xen-users] PCI Passthrough to Windows DomU with iCore and P

i don't know, which one i should order
i need a classic pci slot for an ISDN Card in Windows

the second pci slot i could use for a ISDN Fax Server, but with an hvm passtrough, bothpci slot are forwarding to the windows Server, so i could get the cheaper WB Board.

    for anybody who cares :)


    The cheaper DP55WB also supports VT-D since Release 0142

           Sounds good, P55 can definitely support VT-d so if Intel have

After a bit of Googling I heard mention that quite a few of the

           ASRock P55 boards support VT-d too.

Hi Velten,


           I have done more research on Google and it is hopeful that DP55KG
           will support VT-d.

           Dear Velten,

           Below is the link to a Intel DP55KG motherboard review by
           motherboards.org <http://motherboards.org>
        <http://motherboards.org>. This link shows the BIOS

           screenshot of DP55KG.

http://www.motherboards.org/imageview.html?i=/images/reviews/motherboards/1948_p5_13.jpg


           As you can see in the image, there is the line that says:
        Intel VT
           for Directed I/O (VT-d). But there's no option for you to
        enable or
           disable the feature.

           I am wondering if you must enable Intel VT *first* before you can
           enable or disable VT-d.

           To enable VT, you need to have a processor that supports VT.
        The P55
           chipset definitely supports VT-d.

           I don't think Intel put VT-d line in the BIOS for fun.

P55 chipset boards use the new Socket LGA1156. This socket

               supports both Core i5 and Core i7.
                       You should definitely get this instead of the
        older X58 chipset
               boards which use socket LGA1366. Socket LGA1366 only supports
               Core i7, not Core i5. X58 chipset supports VT-d too, as
        do Q35,
               Q45, X38, and X48 which are outdated.

               Intel releases P55 after X58.

                   very interessting, but i want more than one pci
        classic slot



                   So i was looking for more informations, and find out that
                   there a low-budget iCore System without Hypermode, Turbo
                   Boost and VT-d, in most for iCore5

http://www.pctreiber.net/news/44-prozessoren/472-ueberblick-ueber-kommende-intel-cpus-http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Intel-Core-i3-i5-i7-Produktbezeichungen-und-Preise-durchgesickert-750777.html


                   So i'm not sure what i should do, an "old" Q45 with an
                   OuadCore is nearly the same price than a iCore7 with
        P55 Board.

                   So i will try to find more informations about the DP55KG
                   Extreme Board with vt-d, but with iCore7 it should be
        possible.

                      Hi Velten,

                      VT-d support is not mentioned in the tech spec for the
                   dp55kg so I
                      would not risk it unless some one here has tried
        it and
                   knows it works.

                      Server equivalent like one of these would be a better
                   choice (They
                      specifically support VT-d):
