Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
Shane, I just would like to throw into this exciting i7 thread a short THANK YOU for your great post about Reaper.
I totally agree - as many of us, I think - with your general thoughts regarding artificial limitations of PT Native, limitations deriving from the dark ages of the previous century |

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
The computer has been rock solid except for 1 issue. After installing Strike I started getting strange behavior. That plug has always been buggy as hell so I took it as a plug in problem.
After installing Strike I had Play/Pause like crazy. I looked in my prefetch folder and found 3 files all related to Strike Install? I deleted them and the play pause left for the rest of the night. HOWEVER, after removing them Structure LE started playing off time? I reverted to an image of PT before Strike and all is well again. I new strike was buggy, but my god man. How can this plug in be released? It wreaked havoc on my tyan and I thought it was a ram issue, but now I know that it just kills any system it touches. I'll stay away. Waste of $100 I could have used to buy more ram for this bad boy Other than strike, this computer has been CRAZY rock solid. I could not be happier.

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
hey kris just to let you know, i am running bfd 2.1 (newest version) and is running like a champ. a bit harder on ram, but having no issues at all. i owned both bfd and strike for awhile and was just happier with bfd.

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
ok couple questions I already got my i7 processor from microcenter about to pull the trigger on the rest. couple questons my buddy that uses my studio as much as I do is going to buy the ram. I found the same brand ram some of you guys are using but faster (3x 2gb 1866mhz ocz platinum) was wondering if this would work fine with a timing of 9-9-9-28.
Also im inbetween mobos. I was going to get the same gigabyte mobo but I kind of want the 6 ram slots for when Windows 7 is available since I probably wont be upgrading again for a long time. Shoud I get the GIGABYTE GA-EX58-UD4P for like $60 more to get the extra ram slots or just get the ASUS P6T for only like $35 more. also as far as power supplies go whats the smallest I could go with i7? Im going to get a very small video card its going to only be a PT system. I do have a usb hub thats packed full of stuff like midi interfaces midi controllers printer etc but the hub is powered. do I need a specific type of power supply? the guy at microcenter said only some of them are i7 compatible but I wasnt sure. Thanks in advance for any replys guys I cant wait to get this going.

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results
i was tracking with it the other night. honestly did not notice a lot of difference though my ram usage fluctuated more. i think this will be more of an impact on slower systems with less ram or not proper hard drive configs. i was using it though with the AFJ expansion wich is like 256 vel layers!!
