As an addendum to this discussion, I got a chance (doesn't everyone carry a LiveUSB stick in their pocket "just in case"?) to run latency-test on a substantially similar motherboard, the Biostar A681-E350 Deluxe, being built into a home entertainment center. The American Megatrends BIOS menus are foreign to me and I couldn't decide what if any settings I should change so I left the factory settings alone. I have the usual isolcpus=1 kernel boot parameter. I ran the stock latency-test with 1000us/25us thread periods (all number pairs below are servo/base). For about one minute, the max jitters were 5578ns/3005ns---great---then they popped to 5753ns/24744ns. Within another minute, they popped again to 47102ns/45892ns. At the moment, I don't have sufficient access to this motherboard to investigate so I have to give it a thumbs-down. Stick to the Gigabyte board.
