GIGABYTE GA-Z68XP-UD3 (mac & pc) (protools & Cubase)

[Guido]

Hi!

I'm about to build a new pc and I will use two hard disks

HD1 run Leopard (mac) protools 9
HD2 run windows 7 ultimate sp1 64 bits (pc) cubase 6

Can work with motherboard GIGABYTE GA-Z68XP-UD3 (SOCKET) 1155 or There will be another recommended?

Is possible to use scope plataform in MAC with Protools?

sound board PULSAR PLUS

Muchas Gracias!

there is no Scope software for mac.

why can't you run PT9 on windows?

how are you running OSX on a non-apple motgherboard? hacking it? that would probably be worse than just using windows.

Ok!! I did not know

why can't you run PT9 on windows?

you're right ,I want to learn maco sx and protools (I have always been Windows & Cubase user)

yes, hacking it.


So I will install (MBOX2) on MAC (PARTITION) and PULSAR 2 plus on W7 (PARTITION)......My question is :

MOTHERBOARD GIGABYTE GA-Z68XP-UD3 run smoothly? (WIN7 ULTIMATE SP1 , PULSAR 2+, SCOPE PLATAFORM)

Thanks Garyb !!!!

will it run smoothly?

probably. the socket 1155 motherboards haven't had especially good pci performance as there's no native pci support in the newest motherboards(they all use third party pci controllers). i would really expect these newest versions with newer bios to have fixed that problem. in any case, it should definitely run, whether or not you have problems depends on how you use the card. i'm thinking it will be ok.

what might give you serious problems is
1. the hacked osx(bad idea if stability is the name of the game).
2. the fact that you only will have one c: drive and many programs hate to be installed on any other drive.
