Music wise it doesn't matter.
Compatibiliy either.
It is only the matter of performance.

I suggest you to purchase board that supports RDRAM (800 Mhz).
Intel Garibaldi 850 for example.
And as usual, more expensive is better.

Watch out for Garribaldy motherboards, they are bad with audio ( at least they were some half a year ago ) - if I was u I would check out with Steinberg, on their site which configuration THEY suggest for P4, that's the best way
Good luck

Yuli, I think you mean an "on-board" audio. Which is really "bad" in all motherboards.
If you planning to buy some good sound card, so it doesn't matter.
It is only matter of performance.

Sure it matters, different chipsets and configurations can affect of how the soundcard will work. And all the other PCI cards.

Exactly ! This is what I mean(replying to the Yuli's post) !
My point was: if it is "bad", so it is bad with all the cards, not just audio !
So, it is a matter of performance.

Intel Motherboards gives you a more stable system if you are using P4

Thx everyone for your help. I can't seem to find anything in this matter in Steinberg's website, though.
Thx again

Get an Asus motherboard with either Intel/AMD platform, both are pretty reliable. "Never argue with an idiot, they'll bring you down to their level and beat you with experience" |
