I had considered that fact but there is also a branding issue to consider.I am new to this whole area but I would have tought that it would be possible to produce a generic DSP PCI card designed to process the code for
all Direct-X/VST plug-ins. Surely the market for sound cards with DSP processing ...

Another point, made to me when dicussing what to purchase, was that as the market for sound cards with extra DSP power is relatively new, more vendors will start offering products, prices will become increasingly competitive and technology will improve (as it always does)so its not the best time to ...

I dont know if this is relevant to anyone else but I was trying to find out about feeding a Sony DAT-Man from the S/PDIF out using a 7pin to minijack cable. Some issues exist (active/passive) that might be of interest to some.
Take a look.

Thanks.
Finacially I'm not in a position to replace my motherboard, and my priority right now is improving the capabilities of the digital audio applications I'm using.
I was originally going to buy just an I/0 card such as the RME Digi 96/8 PST but for the same money I could get the Luna2 giving me ...

Has anyone tried both the 'unofficial'George Breese patch(PCI latency)and the VIA 1.04 patch? Is there any difference? Did they fix the problems?

Thanks
Thats fair enough.
Did VIA literally 'forget' to implement bus-parking on the chip-set? Or is there a specific reason for omitting it?
What about the patch, did it make any difference?
If this is already answered please steer me in that direction.(I've read Darth etc.)
Its a pity I've got ...

Thats a real shame.So why do Creamware manufacture a device that is so choosey about the motherboard it operates on?
From what I have read Creamware consider VIA chipsets to be sub-standard, yet the motherboard reviews I have read rated the KT7A-RAID highly.
I suppose it depends on the ...

My current system comprises of a KT7A-RAID (HPT370 chipset)Athlon 1.4Ghz 512MB 133 SDRAM.
Will I have problems?
Will this card allow me to ...
