question on this system\'s specs
 

I came across a system that was custom built, and if I bought it I'm wondering what you saavy folks think of it (as far as how it would perform as a Pro Tools rig).

Specs:

Case: Cavalier 2 CAV-T02
MotherBoard: Intel BOXD915PCYL 915P P4 800FSB LGA775
Processor: Intel Pentium® 4 530 Processor Prescott 3.0GHz, 800MHz FSB, Socket 775, 1MB Cache
Video Card: ATI Radeon X700 Pro PCI Express 256MB DDR3 Video Card w/HDTV
Hard Drive: Western Digital Raptor WD360GD 36.7GB Serial ATA 10,000RPM Hard Drive w/8MB Buffer and Serial ATA Cable Bundle
HD Cables: SATA Cable
Memory: Kingston KVR533D2N4/1G 1GB DDR2-533 PC2-4200 Memory Retail
DVDRom: Sony Internal DVD+/-RW Drive
Wireless NIC: U.S. Robotics USR5416 802.11g Wireless Turbo PCI Adapter Retail
Wireless Key: Creative Labs Desktop Wireless 6000 Keyboard & Mouse Combo


The thing is sweet, but I don't want to get it if it won't run Pro Tools. Of course I'll be using and external firewire drive to record to.

Not with the mBox. It's got a 915P chipset which is incompatible. Check the top of the Compatibility page.

The 915P hasn't been tested with the 002/002r, but since they connect via firewire, there are no known issues like with the mBox.
