I have seen numbers indicating that modern (2 GHz or so) CPUs could reliably get jitter down to tens of us on some motherboards, with a fair bit of effort. Just look on the rt-preempt HOWTO site and they show the demo with 86 us worst-case jitter on the highest priority task. (This assumes I am reading the chart correctly.) Most systems that work at all with RTAI have jitter in the range of 10 us.
