new PC:
mobo: asus M2N-E
cpu: AMD64 X2 3800+ (AM2)
mem's: 2x Kigston DDR2-800 KVR800D2N5/1G
video: asus extreme N7600GS/silent/HTD 512mb
case: antec sonata II
hd's: 2x WD 160GBsata2
1x scope pulsar 2 card (scope 4.0)
i decided for this setup because cpu was relatively cheap (E 153,-)
i'v got it running since yesterday, and all works well. (until now !) and the PC is running VERY silent, almost completely quiet.
cheers
when i run into problems i let you all know

What about heavy audio/STS performance? Low latency performance?

mv test not relevant for me since i've got only 6 DSP's.
i've done the fivetowers test
at 44.1 kHz/25mS: stop=20-24%, running=30-36%
at 44.1 kHz/7mS: stop=23-26%, running=35-39%
at 44.1 kHz/3mS: stop=28-32%, running=41-47%
performance is fluctuating during play AND stop. i.ve taken the values from windows taskmanager/performance.
cheers

will a scope professional card fit in your case?

i would think so.
there is room for 6 HD's, right under the drivebays.
if you're not planning to use 6 HD's, PCI slot 1 is available over the length of the whole case, maybe that goes for slot 2 too. i have to open my PC for that, for i'm not completely sure.

i forgot to mention,
my system is running rocksteady and completely silent, (i use it a lot, all day long) CPU and case temperature 30-40 degrees.
i think a scopecard can't match the performance of a RME card, but i can live with that.
cheers

Thx

hi mike
of course i would do that, why not. but what's the point here since i can only load 5 or 6 masterverbs ? needless to say that i don't expect any PCI problems while running my verbs.
for the record, i don't work witk STS samplers no more since they are no match for present day VST-samplers anymore.
