got an email back, and this guy was a ton of help, not like the last guy who replied, lol.


Scott,
Thanks for your email. I think somebody must have given you some bad information if they said NO VIA chipsets. Newer VIA chipsets have performed much better. There has been problems in the past however. I have experience with this myself. I had one of the 133 chipsets and never got it to work properly with digital audio. Even MP3 playback was a problem. Digital distortion, pops and clicks, and dropouts were common. After upgrading my motherboard, all was well. I made sure to not use a VIA chipset, but I've spoken with friends who are using them with no issues. They are using some of the newer chipset models though.
Here are a couple of boards for you.

I know that both of these boards work very well.
Sincerely,

I have used 133's with absolutely no problems. You just have to use the latest drivers...
 
The guys from M Audio just can't seem to make up their minds about the AMD Via Delta fiasco....on another thread someone posted a reply from M Adio telling to avoid Via chipsets, but me and another guy were told to go with Via ( the new chipset actually) So it's two guys against one, so draw your own conclusions about the matter.......:confused:
 
Well...I have run Madio products with via chipsets...no problems, as along as I load the via drivers from vias website
