Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Just an opinion:
NVMe for OS
NVMe for sessions or sample libraries
SSD for day to day general use and spinners for backup

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

My own advice; I would not expect anything from any cpu under 3GHz. As for the ASUS Prime Z790-P, I would check to see if Gigabyte has a similar product as Asus is a little more questionable on...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Since you are starting from scratch, I recommend doing some drive images during the process:
Image #1-with Windows installed and tweaked, all drivers for all hardware and with quicktime installed....

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Most of the HDX users I know will use higher buffer settings, but the way latency works is very different on HDX. As for hyperthreading, that's something that should be tried both ways as every...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

FWIW, my i7 rigs all booted very fast with an SSD system drive. My current HP Z820 takes a lot longer to boot(also SSD) and something in the system architecture makes it so the Samsung Magician...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

I get about 90% of my work done at 64, but there are certain plugins that force me to go to 1024. Melodyne is one and KeyScape is another(and why I track/edit with MiniGrand, then swap to Keyscape...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

To Barney1981- The chipset might be the issue. AFAIK, Z170M-PLUS is an unknown for compatibility. Additionally, why Windows 8.x??? I'd say moving to 10 is a no-brainer at this point. Lastly, running...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

The current "go to" chipset seems to be the X99(make certain the cpu has the same pin configuration as the motherboard). For graphics, look at nVidia GTX 750 Ti. I am running this card with 3...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

I would check with pro-tools-pc.com for a comparison. At first glance, I'm thinking the graphics card is overkill and it never mentions with motherboard(chipset) and that detail is really important....

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Just my 2 cents, but a purpose built desktop is going to win out over most any laptop.
1-Room for maybe 6 or more hard drives(5 in my rig)
2-Easily run 2/3/4 screens(running 3 off a single...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

For me, 12.5 was awful(unusable). 12.7 and 12.8 have all been okay. Things generally run nicely until a random cpu spike which usually comes with a -9xxx error message. Clicking on the More Info...

Re: i7 Builds - Specs and Results

If cash is really tight and you are happy with your current case, open it up and check out the screw layout. Odds are pretty good that(given its an i7 quad) that its an ATX (size) motherboard and...
