Successful AMD Systems?

I use a Gigabyte MB with built-in Thunderbolt. Works.

Hey There!


I've been running my AMD system with Pro Tools steady for about a year now. Switched from an old Mac 5,1 and with the exception of learning some quirks about Windows, it's been smooth sailing. I record mostly live bands but do also produce some music running lots of instances of Kontakt and other VI (50ish tracks usually) at 48k/24 with a 32 sample buffer size and almost never go above 30% CPU usage.


Specs:


CPU: Ryzen 9 5900x, 12 core @ 3.7GHz

Motherboard: MSI MPG x570
RAM: 32gb DDR4
GPU: AMD Radeon 6600XT
Storage: Multiple NVME and SSD drives
OS: Windows 11, 22H2, Build 22621.1778
Pro Tools: 2023.3.0 (Was using 2019 until this update also with no problems)
Interface: 3 x MOTU 2408mk3 with PCIe card


Hope that helps!
