Re: Pro Tools 8 on a pentium 4?
I would say 2GB of RAM minimum. i gave my old P4 3.4GHz ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe rig to a buddy and its running 3GB of RAM if I recall correctly. It runs 8.0 but I wouldn't call it a barn burner. 4-5 VI's and you going to be about maxed out. You can make things work with some good old fashioned session management. Printing VI's etc. If I recall correctly the same machine got around 40-50 Dverbs running 7.4. My early 2006 Macbook Pro got 79. So figure its about half as powerful as a older MacBook Pro.
