msi z97 - g43
looking forward how stable the system will run.
interesting that viena ensemble. but i really have more than enough with my hardware synths and scope plugins. enough for making stripped down techno tracker....
i'll keep u posted about how the new setup is running
I got a panic on when I thought of the possibility of Scope never being updated again [just a possibility] - so thought in such a case that the only motherboards that will work are the ones that exist now or a few boards that still have PCI included - When PCI is not on motherboards any more that is that and they are all gone.
So thought about the years ahead and started looking for socket 1150 motherboards as all the computer shops stopped selling them because they are not current.
Even if Scope 7 was released tomorrow and if PCI is supported we Scope users still need PCI slots on motherboards. It is a big hassle finding things and I dare say socket 1150 boards will be around on Amazon for a while but they are slowly dis-appearing which is why it's good to have a spare or two.
That MSI Z97-G43 board is a good one for around £100 - got 10/10 from a computer supplier a few years ago. The MSI Z97-Gaming 3 is even better as it has thunderbolt on as well
