This churns through the toughest file very quickly. For example, a Reaper file with 9 stereo tracks, all with effects and EQ applied, at 44000 hz set to 192 pt will render at about 18.0x real time. Bump it up to the highest setting (192000 hz, 512 pt Extreme) and it renders at .7 (nearly real time).
It's also a pretty good gaming machine. The AMD 4850 has 1GB RAM and the board is CrossFire compatible if you want to add another. Vista performance index pegs at 5.9 in all categories.
It is an amazing machine. I just don't need it any more.
