Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Very informative. Thanks for the input. Having said that I probably could have put all my samples on the OS drive. It's all good though, I already ordered another HDD for OSX. So when that comes in,...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Awesome sounds good. I mean to be honest, I probably won't even use OSX for much, it's more of an experimental thing. I can plug that into a Sata 2 port. But quick question, when we do a D-verb test,...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Yeah I'm starting to get it now. I was gonna say, I didn't see how two drives would fit in that enclosure. I may end up doing this.

Question Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Ok so if I understand correctly, that dual hdd box goes inside the computer? Then I put two internal hdd inside of this box? Then I'm guessing you can choose which one is active on the single sata...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

That's a pretty cool idea... Don't hot swap drives run off a port from the back of the computer though? When I was talking about the sata ports, I meant the internal ones. Not sure how I would hook...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

What CPU do you have now? I still think you could save yourself several hundreds of dollars by going with a 920 or 930. That's all I use is softsynths and I still have ridiculous amounts of headroom....

Re: New Setup, some help would be appreciated

Well there's several things to consider here:

1 - Is this going to be a dedicated DAW machine or will it be your main computer? If it's going to be your main computer, what else do you use it for?...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

I have the 930 and it's great. You prob won't see lots of posts about the 930 bc it just came out not too recently. Don't know much about the 860 but I can't see there being ANY problems witih the i7...

Re: Will i7 computer builds work with XP home 32 bit?

Btw, you can run Win7 with ptle 8 with no probs (depending on your build). Seems like most people with non usb interfaces have gotten the 64bit drivers to work in win 7 and usb people are using 8.0.3...

So that goes for everything then right? Update manager and all?

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Oh ok that's what I thought you meant. Yeah I haven't even looked into overclocking yet. Don't think I'll need to.
