What is the last workstation that the 844xe is compatible with...
Currently running hp XW8000 dual 2.8.
Will the XW8200 dual 3.8 still work?

Cheers

The big thing to look for is whether the new XW8200 has the right number of slots. You'll need 3 PCI slots for the boards. Four really, as I believe there's a gap between the BFX/IFX boards and the Studio card.

Most of the newer motherboards have an incompatible configuration, so the hardware physically won't fit.

Cheers,
Ben
