Yes I did, but it seems that the BAR detection would only work on ATI
based cards?

Come to think of it, the decision to get a Nvidia card was probably a
mistake. Seeing how most successful configurations are using ATI
cards, I'm thinking of getting an ATI card instead.

In case I do, any AMD/ATI engineer can confirm if a HD 6870 or 6850 is workable?
