Don't mess with overclocking... not worth it in terms of stress
& potential instability on your system, and you really
shouldn't need it these days - i'm running gazillions of tracks
at very heinous parameters (88.2k/24-bit) with lots of plugins
and yeah sometimes I have to freeze some tracks with certain
CPU-intensive plugins inserted, but i don't need to overclock
on an off-the-shelf Gateway dualcore (OS-Optimized, for a
dedicated DAW platform, of course), running CubaseSX.

agree... overclocking is not necessary and will generally mean odd
deliveries of bad news down the road.

Hi Mike,
Does this mean you're leaving PARIS behind, or is PARIS just staying in a
an older computer?
All the best,
Mike

Hey Mike
Oh no, Paris will definately remain. I still have a spare EDS card and spare
computers -just for Paris. I'll probably keep it's wheels spinning with
acoustic stuff, and stem mixing.

Thanks Aaron, and Neil
Yeah, I probably should avoid it... just get my kicks on the build.

But then you miss out on that special burning silicone smell and that nice
little crackling noise the components make whey they go to computer heaven!
