im currently running a intel celeron 1.2 ghz 256 mb ram computer and it's surpisingly held up quite well for my recording purposes. i've been able to use reason by itself and adobe audition by itself almost flawlessly for my recording needs.. but lately more and more i've been wishing i had a faster computer, that could handle rewire , and having reason and adobe audition open at the same time with a bunch of synths and vsts being used...
so.. the other day my friend offers me a computer... amd athlon 64 2.2 ghz , 1gb ram for 300 bucks. pretty good deal , except it comes with vista (which i hear requires 1gb of ram itself!). would this be a good computer to build off of and a significant upgrade and allow me to run all of my recording applications quicker and more smooth than currently?
