qemu pci passthrough, iommu

Hi,

I want to passthrough my nvidia 6600GT to a windows7 guest.
The problem is I do not know if my host hardware supports all that features I need.

I know the https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=162768 post and tried to do it like explained.

CPU: Intel i5 2500k
MB: ASUS P8P67 EVO

I have seen the VT-d option in my BIOS and enabled it. But there are many discussions out there saying thats not all.
What is a good check wheather my system supports all features.

I should have some iommu messages on dmesg but they aren't there.

[pheinrich@ARCH ~]$ dmesg | grep -e DMAR -e IOMMU
[pheinrich@ARCH ~]$

Any ideas?
