Hi.
Can anyone recommend a motherboard for Linux / multimedia? Probably mostly
Ardour and + some softsynths. I have a P4 2.4Gb / Socket 478 I'd like to put
in it.
As an aside, are dual mobos considered a good idea for realtime stuff these
days? Just asking out of interest, don't think I'm going to get one this time
around.
if you can afford one, smp machines perform excellently for audio tasks,
as most of them are multi-threaded and make full use of both cpus.
the downsides are, they are still somewhat expensive, and you will have
one extra fan and probably a noisier power supply.
