MOTU 828 mkII & Uad-1 - Which Mobo/CPU to choose?

anonymous 28 August 2005

I'm looking to upgrade my PC, partly because I can't seem to get rid of clicks/pops from my MOTU firewire... Tried just about everything.
And of course I'd like a faster machine for my Cubase use...

Anyone using a combination of the 828 and UAD-1, with no problems? and if so - which Mobo/CPU do you use?

I'm currently thinking of an Asus a8v Deluxe (AGP) + Athlon 64 single core, but any recommendations are very welcome...

Ok, Thanks for the info.

It seems though, that UAD-1 should have solved some issues with version 4.0 of their software, regarding firewire interfaces and dualcore.
Hope it's true.

Same setup, using Gigabyte K8NS Ultra939 with AMD 4000+ and have absolutely no problems. The mobo acccepts X2 with BIOS upgrade, sowhen X2 prices come down a little, I'll go that route.
