Hi guys,i have a doubt about AMD motherboards.
I'm really anxious to install my new soundcard (Audiophile 2496 PCI) but i've a problem called advanced MB,i own an Asus A7N8X-Deluxe with an integrated A.P.U. (audio processing unit).
A few days ago some audio experienced users told me (in a past topic) this MB wasn't the best choice for music production due to it's chipset,irq and all audio/video codecs onboard.
My question is:
Am i going to have problems making music (after installing my new soundcard)?
Should i buy a new one?
Thanks for your help!  |

If it's a perfectly normal working motherboard - then you won't have any problems. relax and go make music instead of worrying for nothing.

You must at least try! if you get problems then you know, i go with Trip-´s suggestion =)
instead of worrying about problems, go on and stumble up on them;) hehe

I bought this mb some weeks ago. I had it a few days then the trouble began.
First there was 'only' an audio booting POST message:
'MEMORY TEST FAILED'
I checked everything bios, new memory, all. Nothing helped. After some booting the message was gone (i didn't changed anything).
I made some music and shut down my pc for relaxing some hours. When i started it again, zang boom, there where nothing: no picture, no error message just the ventilators run and hard disc run.
???
I bought then new board, the
gigabyte GA-7VT600-l, thats fine, no probs with that one until now. Hope it stays running.
I had the Asus board 5 or 6 days, i got really mad about that  ,and it was much more expensive.
I never go for Asus again!
But that are only my experience, try it, i heard also much good of this Asus board.
Good Luck! (maybe you will need  ) |

but mobos can be tricky! you never know, i dont think you can blame it on the brand all the time, sometimes its a mix of stuff thats sucking the life out of something.... |
