Best Desktops for Pro Tools LE

[macr0w]

This is the current recommendation. If you already have this one and it is making sound then there is a problem with it.

I don't think there is anything wrong with it. It's just louder than anything else in my box. The helecopter statement was a little exaggerated. I'm just looking for something quieter. What kind of "fanless" coolers are people using?

Here is a one solution to this problem.

ZALMAN RESERATOR 1 Fanless Water Cooling System

Not saying that the Zalman's the best.
But it does work.
And is completely PASSIVE !
I use a homemade WC system and you can spend the same if not more building water cooling from scratch.

Thanks all!

I know this is the allenstien thread but there seems to be alot of knowledgeable people lurking. Is there any love for the A8NE as recommended by digi? Reason is I am in the process of building an allenstien but can have one given to me by a friend that is upgrading is whole box. Thanks

For those looking for a complete built system with a three year warranty and burn in time you can configure one here and have them build it. Call their 1-800-943-7255 number listed on the website and ask for Andrew at extension 206. Tell him I sent you and copy and email him my most current recommend list. They have a large selection of cases and have a great selection of rack mount cases as well. Get their Enermax FMA 350W PSU.

Wow, is that still posted? I need to change that then. You should still be able to get these guys to build you a spec Allenstein system.

You should be able to find the K8V SE Deluxe yet. Did you try www.pricewatch.com ?

A8N-E works great.

A8N-E works great.

Thanks so much...any recommendation for a vid card or will the one from the regular allenstien work (I plan on added a second monitor down the road, but for now will be using one, so a card that is dual capable would be cool)

Allen ... is United Micro the best place to have the Allenstein system built?
I want to build a solid M-Box2 system that will run the BFD drum software with no problems...
Also ... could you please direct me to your latest Allenstein System Specs ...
Thank you! Norm
