Eee 64gb of ram so look out kontakt! bit of a jump from the 16gb in the old one lol.
Going for the 9700x. Don’t need gfx thankfully. mb just entry level gigabyte eagle ice. Nothing crazy.
Also have to get a new audio interface as the old RME one is legacy PCI and I think that kicked the bucket too :( Tempted to try and swap out a few caps and try a PCIe -> PCI adapter but honestly I have no idea what I’m doing there.
You had an internal PCI? I’ve never seen one in the wild.
The saffire claret is a really decent interface. Beats out the standard saffire by miles if you don’t mind focusrite. But admittedly RME are absolute beasts.
I’m the same with graphics card I think it’s a super old 2070 but I don’t game on PC so no great loss considering how expensive new cards are these days.
Ooh that does look like a good interface. Heard good things about focusrite’s drivers too.
Yea it was an old RME 9632, so stable (and took a bit of the wine I spilt lol, kept working though). I will miss it if I can’t give it life again.
I’m starting to look at the Scarlett 4i4, SSL 2+ mkII or the MOTU M4. The MOTU does have pretty levels leds on the front heh. Bit of a step down from the RME but practicially probably doesn’t matter.

9700x with 64gb is unstoppable lol

The ssl looks awesome from the reviews I’ve read (was looking to upgrade front my saffire).
I think it has some hardware DSP as well which is handy.
