Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
Any builders here tried one of these? https://www.newegg.com/p/0VE-01P6-00...9SIB7ZVK4M7506 Supposedly it lowers temps a bit.

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
Haven't tried it, but it does look interesting.

Much smarter and similar in price would be to have a 1TB Gen4 drive like that for the OS (easier to replace from a backup in case of a driver failure or OS corruption), and then 2 TB or so according to needs one drive each for audio and samples. I would personally go Gen4 for the samples, but Gen3 is really enough for audio, unless there is no price benefit.

Interesting idea. I am in the process..FINALLY...of getting my parts list together to have a new system built and I've been looking at your specs as my model. Will any of these PCIe4's serve for the OS? I still think I'd prefer to have separate drives just because that's how I like to keep track of things. How many PCIe4 drives can be put in the system, usually? Right now I have all spinners HDs, a 1tb OS, a 1tb session drive. a 500g catch all drive which I download everything to first, a 1tb Sample/patch holder drive, and an external USB3 1tb drive for all my E-W libraries. In the new system I want to have an OS drive, a session drive, and then everything else on 1 or 2 PCIe4s. I want to keep the E-W libraries on their own drive, I think. Should I be thinking about this differently? And what MOBO would you recommend? I think the i9 CPU you have is what I want as well.

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
14th gen i9-14900K, i7-14700K, or i5-14600K.
https://www.newegg.com/intel-core-i9...82E16819118462 Start with the CPU choice, then MB & RAM. Search Google & YouTube for "gaming" PC builds 2024. I'd get a MB with Thunderbolt 4, lots of fast RAM, and as much internal NVMe storage as possible. Pro Tools does NOT need to run on an expensive GPU. With Intel 14th gen CPUs & DDR5 RAM, you can skip the GPU entirely (!) and use integrated on-board graphics to drive up to 4 monitors. (Extreme gamers & pro video editors might still want a dedicated GPU.)

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
Hi everybody,
its time for a new PC. The following configuration should handle medium to large Dolby Atmos sessions. It will be used almost exclusively for mixing. Its been a long time since I have configured a PC my-self so I am hoping to get some opinions on the chosen components regarding - performance - longlivety (>5 years) - cooling - noise emission Some components I have not a lot experience with (coolers, chassis, mainboard). Especially no up to date experience. This is the configuration so far:
Thanks in advance for your help. Best regards Daniel |

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
Does that MB have Thunderbolt 4/USB 4? For that CPU/RAM build, you can skip the GPU (!) & spend that money on a bigger 4Tb internal NVMe drive and partition it.

Like I said on GS, the build looks quite good, although upping RAM to a mid-level higher XMP one is something I would do. I would also get a separate GPU myself if only to drive 3+ screens, but it doesn't need to be fancy.
