Hi,

EDIT: 7i76S --> 7i96S, just a typo!

There's an one hour test with Lenovo ThinkCentre M910Q in pair with MESA 7i96S. System has nVme-disk so even Sata-bus is disabled. All normal shenanigans in Bios are made. I also add the isolcpus=2,3 in Grub config.

I changed script a bit to show some Unreal Engine 5 demovideo and do some internet search during the test.

good looking! Would be suitable even for parport, I guess.
I have a set of similar hp elitedesk 800 G2, also sporting an i5 6500. Will test them soon

7i76S ???
To be sure it will work properly for longer, since you already have the 7i96S i assume, wire the +5V and ethernet cable, run linuxcnc and leave it on for a day or two while occasionally doing something else on the PC.
I usually leave it for 2 to 5 days just to be sure.

The results are nice and seem to support my assumption, rotational discs hamper latency - on first sight. A closer look shows, one test is with 5 glxgears and the other with 10. So: are these two results really comparable in terms of reproducibility?

I am working on updating the script as promised right now. No ETA so far. It will address the bugs recorded up to date and have some enhancements too. So, stay tuned :-)
