hello im new to the forum and i might be buying soon a pulsar II and a booster card wich totals to 12 dsps over 2 cards.
now i got a question.

is my motherboard compatible with the pulsar II and power boost card.
i have a asus m4a785td-v evo motherboard with a amd quadcore 3,2 ghz processor 4 gig internal ram 1 terra harddisk.
i realy hope someone knows if i can use the pulsar cards in my pc cause i wanna play around with the modular.

best regards

Hoi Warzenger,

At http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=fcsXWSxnhzZE9rnR I see the board has 3 PCI slots, so indeed, you can use 2 of these to host your DSP cards!

I do not know about the PCI stability of this motherboard, but you'll be able to at least to install the cards and their OS. Maybe someone else can hint you on which of the slots are more 'stable', for example sharing IRQ's or paths on the motherboard often doesn't do good. But then again, you might not notice anything and just fly through.

With the 785G I have seen 2 x Scope cards and a UAD
card working fine.
Many guys prefer the extra PCI slots and AMD boards
always come w/ plenty.
The only issue I remember was using dual Video cards
and Crossfire.
I saw a guy using a basic video adapter and then the
128MB's of Sideport RAM.
He has an old Luna 2496 and a Pulsar II that he'll never
part with.
