Hey all,
I'm in desperate need of a more powerful PC for recording. Saw this deal-of-the-day and I was wondering if it's worth buying. My DAW is Reaper, I record up to 8 tracks simultaneously (through a Presonus Firepod) and would like plenty of processing for VSTs and VSTi's. It seems with my current PC (Gateway cheapo Dual Core), any time I start to use more than a few plugins, it starts to lag and crackle. Lately, it's even been happening without using plugins or lots of tracks...I'm not super tech savy, so any insight on why this will or will not work would be appreciated.
