I wanted to buy the "Marian Trace Alpha", for use in FM radio, but I needed to know what is the right motherboard, not to have incompatibility issues. Please help me ?

It's PCI soundcard so you need at least 1 PCI slot on motherboard.

Please show an example, because most motherboards are the type PCIe and 64 bit and then are not compatible ...
Thank you

Just choose motherboard with PCI and enjoy. I recommend ASUS.

Every 2nd, 3rd-gen Intel Core MB or newer with PCI slot will do:

H61, B75, H77, Z77 chipsets and more (Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge 1155 socket) or newer LGA 1150 for Haswell/Broadwell, like H81, H87 (Z as well), etc. Prefarably with graphics output from integrated graphics built in the CPU (typically you don't want a graphics card in ST machine). ATX, mATX factor forms.

Example LGA 1155 (harder to find a new one, not used)
https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/B75MPLUS/
http://www.gigabyte.com/products/produc ... id=4150#ov
http://www.gigabyte.com/products/produc ... id=4214#ov (even that small, as long as it has a PCI slot)

Example LGA 1150
http://www.gigabyte.com/products/produc ... id=4664#ov
http://www.gigabyte.com/products/produc ... id=4491#ov
https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/H87MPLUS/

Just to name a few.

Asus, Gigabyte are OK. Don't go for Asrock or MSI ;)

For a cheap machine, get used H61 with PCI slot, and i7-2600 or i5 2500 (K, if you want to overclock) and ready to go (Sandy Bridge, 2-nd gen Core gen is approximately 20-25% slower than Haswell, given the same clock, still more than sufficient).

ESU Juli is a great card, available in PCI express and a lot less than the Marian.

Unfortunately, at least in the US, the Juli@ has been unavailable for months.
