damn chipset-sensitivity

OK,

I have now made sure that both my cards are on their own IRQ, and I have also tried to raise the ULLI and still the problem remains.

I invested in a rather expensive and powerful (550 w) PSU a few years back so this shouldn't be a problem either.

My guess is still my MB and how the scope devices are distributed over the DSP's in this particular XTC-project.

Hopefully I'll be able to buy a new MB, CPU and ram in the very near future. So now the old dilemma rises again, should I go pure Intel or should I choose AMD64+nforce3 chipset? I'm leaning towards AMD, but these last experiences make me reconsider.

i'm staying with the tried and true intel solution for the moment. stability is the name of the game. a 3-3.4ghz p4 is more than fast enough.

For those interested in listening to the before mentioned static particles, I have uploaded an MP3-sample in the musicsection:
