get tweakbios and up your pci latency settings (if your mb doesn't already support). don't fahk this up though!

VIA is still a bad choice and unfortunately while you can help the poor performance using the utilities found on <a href=http://www.viahardware.com/>this website</a>, there is no way to bring it to the full performance of a BX, 815. AMD760 is also a promising chipset as is the new nVidia, but AVOID VIA for best results with reverbs, sample playback and lots of audio tracks.

what about the <b>new via chipset kt266</b>? anyone got the msi kt266 pro running with pulsar/scope?

its structure contains the v-link, a connection between the <b>new v-link southbridge</b> and the northbridge, which doubles the bandwidth of that interconnect.

as far as it comes with a completely new southbridge (afaik the southbridge of the via chips kt133 and kt133a was the 'bad thing' for our cards), there should be no reason why it shouldn´t be suited for pulsar as well as the i815 is...

there is also another promising chipset from sis - ok, it´s no chip<b>set</b> - it´s a single chip...

gruß,
Mo

You might check out <a href=http://planetz.ghostwheel.com/phpBB/vie ... rum=1>this thread about VLINK</a>. In short, it's probably a great chipset for the standard consumer and perhaps even gamer, but I personally wouldn't ever use a VIA chipset in a higher end audio work station. For like $15-25 more, you can get a proven, solid choice like the BX and 815. I'm finishing up my second AMD760 (ASUS A7M266) today, so perhaps within days I'll have some more AMD760 results. Preliminary results seem to show that it kicks any VIA chipset out of the water.

Did you see <a href=http://www.anandtech.com/showdoc.html?i=1483>the article about the new AMD760MP chipset?</a> That's right Dual AMD Thunderbird DP cpu's baby! By the end of the year, we'll have 2 very good choices for AMD, hopefully a dually sub-$200 AMD board running the AMD760MP chipset, and <a href=http://www.anandtech.com/showdoc.html?i=1484>the nVidia crush</a> chipset Mo's been talking about here on the forums.

I'd wait for one of those, or snag an 815 board to surf until the waters are warmer. Cos in my view, nothing is colder than a VIA :wink:

or was a disaster to run w Pulsar. I could not load any Reverbs/Delays without having PCI Master Overflows (chk google.com for "PCI Mazster Overflow", just for fun :wink:

Now going to get this one, look at it's specs! It's a dual CPU 815 mobo.

or
http://www.acorp.com.tw/English/default.asp and get ingo on A815EPD1 (the EPD1 stands for dual cpu, no onboard video, audio nor LAN)

*added*

Running the 6A815EPD fro a week now, very satisfactory. Only one BSOD, in mediaplayer. Never any PCI error. The deck has dual PCI bus, dual CPU on an Intel 815 chipset :smile:
