Pentium based motherboards for Avid

[Carlos_E._Martinez]

Ok. Just now did I get a word from the shop I bought my Sempron 64 and Asus K8N board from, and they will take it back with no fee for me.

So I think it's time to think of a Pentium based system, that seems to run better with Avid than Amd's.

The dilemma now is what mobo to go for. Intel would be my first choice, but all their best boards only attend one pair of IDE devices. They seem to be designed for SATA HD drives, leaving the IDE interface for the DVD/CD devices.

What other mobo brands and models have worked or are working fine with Avid Xpress (preferably HD) editing layout?

Please don't be shy and tell what is working for you.

Intel Bridge.

Intel Bridge.

I Built my Own Avid Machine. and after a mistake with regards to Mobo, i can give you a Tip that will save you time and money.


Any Pentium Base Mother with Intel North and South Bridge will be your best bet.

and a Built-in Firewire Input(s)


also get a Mobo that will allow you Multiple Memory Usage(3Gig+)


aside from that.. youll be Happy.
