maudio delta 1010 compatibility

Relating to the maudio delta 1010 soundcard: does anyone have any recommedations for current compatible cpu and motherboard brands/spec?
Most people I've spoke to recommend Asus motherboards but I'm not sure which specific model is the most appropriate - not bothered about price but am bothered about stability!
Also most people have recommended intel chips for audio systems, although a technician at maudio personally recommended(not a company endorsement)an athlon dual core cpu - reckoned it had out performed the equivalnet intel chip in an SOS article.

Hmmm.yes I think that the most appropriate answer to your question would be
1.Buy some sort of Creamware card preferably the low cost and highly efficient Luna 2 with dedicated mixers,routing platform and amazing synthesizer simulations developed by the famous John Bowen,Sequential prophet Guru,and then come back at a later date with the same question or:
2.Go onto a forum Dedicated to your Own "Damn Toy" Which I may add also runs Digitools Le and never come back.
Or
3.Buy a Creamware card to run alongside your M-Audio whatever, so at least your musician friends won't laugh at you.
P.S
There's nothing more frightening than a guy who tell's you to go shove it while smiling at the same time.

The last time i saw a delta 1010 was when your grandfather was using it to here the recording from a DC 10 black box that crashed landed on your F..... motherboard>:">?:">"?">

No I'm not serious, I just thought I'd jump on some guy because I thought,"oK We won't see him again",and seriously man,you don't know what you're missing.It's all a big playground.If I hurt your feelings I'm sorry.

Alright when pushed for an answer.I think all pci soundcards use the same Irqs.If your going to use an asus motherboard use an nvidia chipset as the vias are extremely unstable.Well,that has been Most CREAMWARE users experience.And as for the dualcore,I think it's a bit too expensive at the moment, and frankly it's a bit to early to see how many bugs there are concerning drivers etc.we're talking about 64 bit processing I'd be very wary.

cheers for the advice - will bare it in mind when speccing a new system. Bit confused though - is this a dedicated creamware users site then? I didn't realise cheaper cards were so frowned upon. a mate gave me the link cos I was thinking of buying his creamware card - purely to impress people I might add...

Yes this is a dedicated creamware card site,It could be worse I suppose,you could have asked about a 20,000 euro digidesign studio then you would have been shot down in flames,....insulted,.....your car burnt etc. etc.But then it is tech talk.
You're not only talking about the fact creamware cards have a minimum of 3 dsps,but also the entirely programmable/routable platform and the effects and synthesizers which go with it.GO ONTO THE CREAMWARE SITE.
alright,cheers and good luck
R.Hargrave.
p.s the funny thing is that when you buy a creamware card,you don't impress anybody.
And that's why they can be bought so cheap.
