I'm in the process of upgrading my computer HW,
but still want to use
my old trusted M-Audio delta 1010 cards. Two times, I have had to buy a
motherboard with old PCI ports, or that is what I have believed for some
years. Today I found this on the 'Net:

Don't know. Routing PCI (Classic) over PCIe: Is this a good idea when
realtime matters? I have a Supermicro Mainboard with two Intel Xeon CPUs
and there are some xruns from time to time I can't explain. The PCI-Slot
is also routed over PCIe...
I have to test them, first, before recommending but I'm about to switch
to AMD, because they still deliver PCI-classic-support without any
workarounds on the latest CPU-generation.
Search for MoBos with A88- and A78-chipsets f.e.!
Unfortunately, latest Opterons doesn't support PCI-classic AFAIK.
Greets!
