Audiophile or RME DIGI96/8

[mal7]

Hi everyone,
I intend buying a second computer dedicated to G Studio 160, to play large piano samples. (Bos Imperial and Grandioso)
On my present computer,(P111 1Ghz, 512 ram) the latency is so bothersome that it makes playing nearly impossible.
Any one please give me a clue on whether the Audiophile or RME DIGI96/8 would perform better in regard to latency?
Also, is a P4 1.8Ghz likely to perform better regarding latency, than a P111 1Ghz ?

Any help greatly appreciated

DO NOT buy the Audiophile. You will get absolutely NO support from them if you have problems. I don\'t know anything about the other card, but I can tell you not to deal with M-Audio products. Too many people have been burned by their lack of support. Check out this post.

I am replacing my Audiophile with a Hammerfall today. I\'ll sell you the AP2496 if you\'d like.

And Vertigo50 is right about no support...
