The new AMD processors have achieved over 100% better performance than Mac G4 and PIII systems and 50% better than Mac G5 and P4 systems. With rock solid stability, they easily push past the 32 track/160 effects limit. These are all top quality components proven to work with Digi001, MBox, 002, and 002R.

@jayda650 I didn't know those computers or the site existed until one of my older brothers gave me the link. My brother is a CAD guru, lives in san diego and works in vegas (he flies out every week.) He knows the owner of XI on a first name basis because his CAD company has purchased a lot of pc's and servers from them.

Personally I wouldn't buy an HD rig unless my studio was somewhere in the mid to high 6 figure range,and I had a shitload of high paying clients. But Nonstop has had his eye set on one for a GOOD minute now (we chopped it up over the phone about it) and to be honest the man DESERVES one.
