Hi,
My 5 year old AMD64 machine smoked yesterday so I'm looking to
build something new. On interesting new processor is the Intel I5-661.
I'm wondering whether very many folks are using Intel motherboard in
Linux DAWs? I've not used one before for any reason so it's a new
vendor to me. The model I read about in a test document was the
DH55TC, but I'm partial to the DH55HC as I need more than 1 PCI slot:

Comments and ideas welcome.
We've just got a couple for desktop use at the office and combined with
a flash drive they are definitely fast.
No idea about the impact on audio though, sorry. Can have a look into it
today if no one else has any advice.
