PCi-E and PCi slot, one of each. I'll use a FW audio card (TI chipset, 2 ports!) and the video is built in. I've seen the Q6600 for about $250 in several places and I'm completely impressed so far with that performance. I've been spanking it like a cheap rented donkey all day, multi tasking it's little butt off and I've managed to push it up to 50% CPU so far (stuff like downloading MS updates, installing Anti Spyware and doing a A/V scan while surfing the web and moving files

across a network all at the same time). I'm not sure how Nuendo's multi core support is, so I'm not sure what kind of bump you'll see though. If it helps, the whole thing inclusive of RAM, CPU, bare bones, 2 HDDs and DVD-9 lightscribe drive ran me right about $700 US. I overpaid on the CPU by about $50 but I wanted it from a local vendor and I wanted it now. I'd supposed this super quiet little box would work well with a Magma PCI-e, but I couldn't verify that - if that's how your Nuendo is indeed set up. That help any?
