Hey, there!

It seems that some one has used four cards in one system: http://www.ebay.de/itm/122744406450

So for me is this thread about technical stuff, not an ad. I'm not related to the seller.

Cheers, Andreas

Incredible ! I would like to see a proof it works fine ! Is there not 15 dsp in a card, so 15x4 = 60, no ? He says 64dsp ! Or maybe he added a 5° 4 dsp pulsar card ! :P

3 cards work 100%,but 4 cards are not guaranteed by sonic-core.net. If you had a motherboard with 4 pci slots then try. But never buy it. It's priced soon to a used xite 1. And the xite works 100%!

Oh, yeah! How can it be 64 DSPs? Anyway a kind of busy system/tower...

@Xite: Yes, I agree.

yes. there were some modified systems that used 4 cards WAAAYYYYY back when.
that's a very old computer. you can't do that with current systems.

those are probably 1st generation cards.

The offer is for a complete PC (incl. HDD, MB Graphic card etc). So the price is not only the DSP cards. Not that I'd buy this thing.

1500£ for 4 15 dsp cards is a good price, no ?

420€ for one 15 dsp card. I believe I saw less expensive second hand cards... But they are 64 dsp's !
