I recently moved to a new Dual Xeon Quad machine and I have been experiencing ALOT of dropout problems with my two Lynx AES16 cards.

I seem to be running into problems once I get to about 128 sample latencies. I am using SX3 but I am running 4 UAD cards off of a Magma expansion chassis.

There seems to be problems with Lynx drivers in general. I had another problem where Pro Tools was consistently crashing on me. I had to create a seperate boot with disabled Lynx drivers to get things working. DAW Bench has also noted problems with the firmware working properly with Dual Quad systems, you should check that site as well for more info.
