Hi Gary, I can leave out Pulsar1....It's just Pulsar1.....So it's not that BIG of an issue. And I use mixing too little of Scope. Cause it's slow in handling(with a full mixer) And I don't like the crap of multiple saving.....I have a great template which I can use for stuff, and on and off I add sm...

Hmmm, thought the dual pentium was kinda the same. But it doesn't matter. Thanks GaryAstro for the advices. I've decided for the Thunder cause i think it's a good deal. I'll come back and let you know how it runs....I'm also not a benchmarker, so that would just be real-life experience ;-) Thanks gu...

Hi Gary, Thanks again for your reaction, and I don't get you wrong....;-) And your feedback i appreciate a lot. The thing is, I made a good bargain on the Opterons.... at 130,= a piece, and can buy a Thunder board with 3 Gig reg mem for just 400 eur(total pack). Tiger is 250 without mem..... So woul...

Btw Gary another question ;-) Also the wiki states that PCI rev2.2 is 3.3v compliant. Did you/or anybody actually tried it, or did you get any reactions on this from Creamware(which i doubt ;-)) or somewhere documentated. I know the creamware cards are tested to 37.5 mHz Pci, not that i want to over...

Of course a few reasons. 1st: I stepped away from Intel some years ago, and I like it. Friend of mine has intel P4, and had CPU-lockups with 60-70% load in cubase. Xpsp2 solved it, but i don't want sp2. 2nd: Performance...the opterons are good proc. And with this Thunder there's also the issue of me...

Of course i did some more research meanwhile..... And CW manuals state that the Scope Card would be PCI rev2.2 compliant..... What does this mean? Does it mean this: -PCI rev2.2 compliant -32 bit 33/66Mhz PCI adapter for both 3.3V and 5V environments ????? Cause that would mean that a scope card cou...

Hi there, in this manual creamware talked of some oscilloscope module. It should be in the tools-folder...which is not there. Did i perhaps delete something in a moment of despair, or was it taken from the package, like the exchanger-module(?!)... Anyone knows/can give a hint on how to make an effic...
