I am interested in buying the evga z97 classified. One, do the dual intel lans on the board support teaming? Every review just says they are there but no mention of teaming. And the 2nd one is a bit tricky. I currently use a adaptec 6805e raid card on a gigabyte mb. It's a raid on chip card. The question I have about it and consumer motherboards in general: If the raid card is ROC and you are using a consumer (non server) mb, does the motherboards bios usually take on the raid card's bios more specifically the evga z97 classified? I just want to make sure because I bought a non-ROC LSI card that basically had to return to retailer because the consumer mb's don't have enough bios/nvram to hold a entire non-ROC raid bios. The reason I went with 6805e is that it's the cheapest ROC card ($280 vs. 4-500 for other brands)that can handle the bandwidth of multiple sata 3 ssd's in raid 0. The 6405e is a piece of junk. Never had it but it's waste when it's pci-e 2.0 1x. Technically, that means you can use one sata 3 ssd where the 6805e has 2gb of bandwidth (pci-e 2.0 4x) to handle multiple ssd's meaning if you want raid ssd's you need the 6805e if you want to go cheap. Just remember to buy a 40mm fan for cooling on the raid card.
 
What I want to have in pci-e config is the following:
1. Sapphire r9 290 tri-x oc
2. Creative labs sb zxr
3. Adaptec 6805e raid card
4. Sapphire r9 290 tri-x oc

Hi again
 
Did some fast test with teaming the Nics on this board and it works.
I could only test ALB and RLB modes. I dont have a switch that could handle the other teaming modes.
