>>>After my experience with the H61 board and finding that what used to be "true" is not necessarily so<<<<
I had change from H55M UD2H to a H61M S2P B3 + G440 combo and I would say that it is worse than the H55 + i540 combo in sonic quality, though Jack had reported otherwise. I wonder if it is due to the converter chip.
What is your experiences with the H61 against the H55 board?

I found it superior.
I removed the stuff JW recommended. He is using the CELERON version of the cpu, I am not.
I had removed the same stuff from my H55 board so it was a fair comparison, if such a thing is possible with audio assessments!
What is the converter chip you mention? I do not know what you mean. Are you referring to the PCI bridge? If so that is what I was referring to - I think we might have overstated the importance of a dedicated PCI link.
But, who knows? AS with all in this crazy obsession what works for one system could very well not be so good for another.
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, I was referring to the PCI bridge.
Maybe for my case it could be that I am too acclimatized to the sound of upsampling to 192kHz via SRC 145dB which is now not possible with the Celeron processor.

are we missing each other's points?
