Just to confirm here - systems with 2 PCIe 16x slots are indeed available.
Intel has a fantastic one - D955XBK.
I know this isn't AMD, which it looks like you're after, but I really
need to mention this board as I've built systems with it and it's the
sweetest Intel board I've ever used.

Ed.
Oh, and yes, the customer I sold it to has added a second 16x display
