OK and that's the opposite of hybrid engine. Where the mixer runs native. You can find discussions and documentation about how much HDX resources the mixer takes... certainly remember folks in the past being surprised just mixing consuming a singe card. But it's sounding like you are not running large sessions?

If all you are facing is stability problems system that are grossly out of whack from what you should get with a powerful PC you might find that adding HDX is just as unstable. So hopefully you can find a dealer or somebody who will let you test and possibly return the card if it does not help or makes things worse.
