Anticipation - time's gonna crawl....
Slightly OT, but I wanted to toss out another "thanks" to all the folks here who've answered dumb questions over the last couple weeks/month or so.
The AMD price drop has hit retail, and I've ordered all the components in for the new DAW from newegg. Gonna be a couple days to get it here, but I'll try to maintain a state of steady Zen 'tll it's arrival. I'll have a couple days off when the stuff hits, so I should be up and running by the weekend. Wheee.........!!
For the record -
K8U-939 Mobo
Athalon 4600+
2 Gig Corsair
40 gig IDE system
160 gig SATA150 audio
PNY FX5200 256m Dual Head
Antec Sonata II case w/450w Phantom PSU
(Yeah, I'm aware some folks have had problems with the Antec PSU's - we'll see...)
Liteon DVD/CD combo drive
Wasn't looking for "latest, greatest" or state-of-the-art - just a well proven, reliable configuration that should be several orders of magnitude better than the old 1.6 P4.
Can't wait to set my default session to 24 bit!!! Thanks again, all - lots of good advice and opinions around here.......
