Thanks for the advice in previous thread. I&#39;ve got my choice of machine edging towards the Intel i7 860 LGA 1156 on a Gigabyte P55 mobo. If anyone knows of stopper issues for running on this config, I&#39;d love to hear them. <br>
<br>Likely setup: <br><br>Distro:<br>- probably ubuntu studio 9.10<br><br>Software:<br>- Csound ( single threaded, so the higher turbo mode on i7 860 wins over i7 920 )<br>- Ardour<br>- Jammin<br><br>Hardware:<br>- presonus firepod<br>
