depends on how many horse tranquilizers you can steal from Amy.DJ - I won't guarantee great success with it. There were few options with 3
PCI slots, and in hindsight (not being able to use but 2), I might have
looked at something else. Imho, if you aren't all PCIe at this point, it's
a bit of a crap shoot trying to get a great board. The Asus boards do seem
to get mixed reviews, but most PCI boards I looked at did as well.
The P5W is running well for guys with firewire audio (FF800) and 2 UAD-1s.
I get some glitches with graphic movement at certain latencies (e.g.
dragging the timeline in the Nuendo arrange window during playback), but
it's inconsistent and hasn't been a showstopper (I have a PCIe XFX GeForce
dual head DVI). I wouldn't call it a great board, but I think this is a bit
of a transition period with boards.
I also haven't upgraded BIOS, but it's a later rev anyway.

Dedric
