I'd very much like to build a server based on the CAPS designs, but all of these designs seem to be based on USB technology. I'd prefer to use my Lynx audio card for a few practical reasons: I already own it; The distance from my server to my DAC is more than the approximately 16 foot limit associated with USB cables; and I already have a sufficiently long custom made XLR cable to feed my DAC. The Lynx card requires a PCI slot, and there aren't any in the motherboards specified for the CAPS designs. Further, I am unsure whether the specified cases would fit a half size PCI card. The card dimensions are 5.0" H X 7.4" W X 0.75" D. I would appreciate advice on an alternate motherboard that would include a PCI slot and otherwise meet the design parameters specified in the CAPS designs. I would also appreciate advice on the suitability of the CAPS cases and power supplies with the use of the Lynx card and alternate motherboard. Are there other design considerations that I am missing?
