I have to buy one PC for using ACID 4.0, I think to buy M-AUDIO 44 or 66 sound card,
what is the best configuration hardware?
I want to make one PC with dual processor, is good solution?
and the chipset amd 760 mpx are the right solution? with amd mp cpu?

I totally believe that whatever soundcard or audio interface you choose is subjective. It'll all depend on what you want in a soundcard. The Delta 44 or 66 are both great choices.

Check out another post of mine. There are some links there to some great pro-quality soundcard manufacturers.

I think I've heard issues with the Delta line of soundcards and the VIA chipset, and I believe there's a fix for the problem but I'm not sure as I don't use that chipset.

I've heard the Intel CPU's are (slightly?) better at multimedia than AMD, but then again they cost a lot more too.

I'm sure others can pipe in on this issue.

HTH,
