Thorsten was completely clear in his posts. As he pointed out, it's a matter of containing switching noise, not eliminating it. Even if a linear power supply is used to provide DC to run the motherboard there will still be switchers powering the CPU and RAM because these chips require high current at sub 1 volt for reasons of device physics.

- I do not doubt your AUDIO system's resolution - and am commenting strictly on computer part. - carcass93 10:10:27 09/22/14 (1)
- I would not expect the system downstream from it to be truly resolving - fmak 12:06:53 09/22/14 (0)
