If the dell is having issues keeping up with multi-track playback, its likely a combination of underequipped processor and too little ram. As far as pricing goes for things, i can really only quote prices for USDM stuff, however i can just make up a list of things that you could find in your area, although im imagining that it would be more expensive over there. Give me a day or so and i'll try to come up with a descent computer build for you and see what you think You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

No hurry, I'm never quick on desicions anyway ;-) Oh, and I tried today to record a song with the X3, and both recording and playback was flawless. Then I disconnected the X3 and hooked up my older Line6 Guitarport and all of a sudden playback was skippy. To me it seems the X3 works in full duplex handling sound while guitar port either is less efficient as a sound card or only works while recording and for playback leaves it to the internal soundcard. I did record about 5 tracks with the X3, something that was almost impossible before as the playback was skippy while recording still was at ~0 latency. I tried to find facts on the Guitarport whether it's it's single duplex as I think or not. Never the less, it seems like the X3 can work as a soundcard and my Dell would then work for recording. If you still assemble a suggestion for a computer I think that would be a nice reference for everyone to read so please go ahead if you like.

I already sent you a PM with a suggestion computer since i found I have more free time then i thought, but if you'd like to copy and paste it back up that would be great since i don't have a copy of it.
