Re: Which motherboard shoud i buy with the PROTOOLS HD 2 ACCEL PCI-E card on Window 7
Some depends on whether you already have other parts. IOW, while I recommend a socket 2011 mobo, it won't help if you have a socket 1150 cpu. My personal pref these days would be a socket 2011 Gigabyte mobo (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128562)
with an intel i7 6 core(3930K) and 16(or 32)GB of quad-channel RAM(4 matching sticks). Having said that, you need to see what slots are available on any mobo you are considering, and how far apart they are.

Thank you for your suggestion !
I hv check the mobo that you suggested. Is it possible to install the Core Card into a x8 slot and Accel Card into a x1 slot? |

My opionion on the GA-X79-UD5 is not so good right now......I keep having issues with my BIOS getting corrupted. It's on the blink right now (again). I run a hackintosh but I don't think that has anything to do with it....because on a basic level it's all just BIOS at that level. Gigabyte does have a 3 year warranty on this board........

Nice I wanted to get one as well (for the lack of latency) but I am working on building a room first......

Re: Which motherboard shoud i buy with the PROTOOLS HD 2 ACCEL PCI-E card on Window 7
Hi guys
I tried to install the cards in my old pc Asus z77 sabertooth board.I installed the cord card into x16 slot and accel card in x1 slot. Luckily, no beep sound when i turn on the computer. When window 7 started, hardware is detected and start to find the driver automatically. Everything seems ok with this mobo. But i need to test the cards in the studio because my 192 i/o is in the studio. Thanks everyone! |
