deathboyI just got my upgrade bits.
Not the fastest, bestest of kit, but for £170 I've now got:
* 512mb of 266 DDR Ram
* Athlon 2600 XP
* Gainward Geforce 4
... my OLD setup (pre-chip-explosion) was:
* 512mb of SDRAM
* Athlon 2000 XP - NOT running as fast as it could because I had the wrong speed RAM
* Riva TNT 2 - old workhorse little feller
and, for a week and a half I've been running (due to the chip-explodey)
* 512mb SDRAM
* Duron 1.1ghz
* Matrox Mystique Rainbow Runner (old and by today's standards CACK)
... I FEEL SOOOOO MUCH BETTER.
God, I love new kit.
Cubase is *purring* along at 10% CPU load with all my softsynths, effects, audio channels with inserts and EQ running.
I now need a copy of Quake or Unreal because I deleted all my games when I ran out of drive space (just before the Great Porn Cull of 2003).
Come one, Q3 Demo, I want to shoot stuff...
