Beware that not all multi cpu Opteron motherboards are created equal. Quite a few connect all their pci busses to one cpu. A good motherboard will distribute the pci busses across the cpus. Read http://www.samag.com/documents/s=9408/sam0411b/0411b.htm for good and bad examples and a list of things to watch out for when purchasing an Opteron system.
