4 GB Kingston DDR2 RP_001:  XITE-1 is sharing IRQ with some other devices, but no trouble so far.

4GB CORTONE:  WinXP sp3 w/3G switch. The PCIe card is in the slot nearest the graphics card. I started in the slot farthest away (system didn't see XITE-1), moved to the second slot (shared IRQ16 with graphics card, didn't test to see if there was a problem), and disabled the USB Port which shared the IRQ when I moved to the final slot by the graphics card. XITE-1 is now sharing with a PCIe root, which I assume is the one that it is installed into and is okay.  System is very stable. I get DSP Optimization errors if I start to get crazy with the polyphony even though the overall load is only about 30%, but I suspect that is partly user error as I get the DSP assignment tricks sorted out.  EDIT: After getting some intermittent power-on errors, and having some other glitches, I followed GaryB/XITE-1/4Live's advice and moved it back to the middle slot which shares IRQ16. Back to stability, nearly all glitches are gone! Plus, the most recent release (2609) has helped improve the DSP Optimization errors a lot.

  Intel Core i7 920 3GB TJSOUND:  Win XP SP3 RAID (0) on JMicron controller (integrated) share IRQ with XITE-1 (Irq17).  Works well.  Toshiba Satellite A300-PSAGCE-Win7 - sonic core express card - Xite-1 also fully working.

  2GB TAU: So far, it's working well. I had to replace my old ATI X600, since it was acting up a lot (blinking monitors, slow refresh, etc) It was a bit old. anyway, and the new one cost me 40 Euro.  XITE-1 shares IRQs with the Graphics no matter what slot it's in. I started with the 1X, close to the graphics, and now it's on an 8X, with no discernible difference.
DFI LanParty X38 DK   QX6800 4GB Corsair POLLUX: Matrox Parhelia PCIe graphics card with 3x19" screens attached.  Not a glitch with XITE-1 running at the lowest latency settings.
Asus Rampage II Extreme x58 Intel Intel Core i7 920 Nehalem 3 x 1 GB Corsair DDR3 1600mhz triple channel memory SOUNDDESIGNER: I switched Motherboards awhile back since my x58 Gigabyte UD4P was incompatible with XITE-1. I now have the ASUS Rampage II Extreme X58 Motherboard and it works very well with XITE-1. I've had this MOBO for about 2 months now and all is good, this is a working set-up.
