As I've mentioned many times, I'm on a quad i7 2.3ghz that boosts to 3.3ghz under load (heavy use e.g. rendering) and 16GB ram /NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 512 MB. What sort of CPU / RAM combos are you guys running? Also, do you ever think "man, my rig feels too slow". I always think this while rendering video. Exporting music is usually very quick and never an issue. Is there any part of your production process that makes you want to pull your hair out? I know a few folks do 3D rendering which is like watching paint dry in Hell. I've been there I used to work in 3D and the render was the worst part. Anyone running big iron? 8 core? 12 core? 16 core? Not virtual, but real cores? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content! Don't miss today's free blues, jazz & country licks.

What really chaps my pants is that Intel started making just one chip for i3, i5, i7 and they just cripple the features in order to make the i7 chip in to an i5 or i3. It's cheaper just to make the higher end i7 and then basically break it to create stratification in the product line.

That's why I don't. But I think I have a couple I5 and I7, maybe one or two I9 laying around my dad's shop. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

Fast though The mobile version doesn't even seem to have a price yet. 6 cores is sure spiff though. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/pro...processors.html My laptop is a 2012 and it still benchmarks with current shipping laptops. I'm just thrilled it's lasted this long and still can roughly hold it's own. I really hate that the new macbooks are heading toward soldering everything to the motherboard, but that's life I guess. One of my macbook pros (a 2011) had the battery explode and it wrecked the entire machine. Uggh. I did pull the ram and ssd drive. I hate having just one machine though. I like having a backup, in general. So I am looking to get something as a backup machine. A mac, of course. Something that can edit video/audio etc. Maybe a mac mini or imac, from a few years back that will still let you upgrade the ram Todd QUOTE (MonkeyDAthos @ Apr 15 2018, 09:51 PM) I would lose myself in video games if I ever built a decent machine.
