What Drives Your DAW - Laptop Or Desktop?

[mjolnir]

i forgot to mention, i do have an external DVD-RW drive but I hardly ever use it yet.

Ah, then people would accuse me of boasting or some shit like that for posting my kit from the outset I typically post/contribute sometime later in threads I create and always have.

Actually, you don't.

99% of them are pointless clickbait

You're an attention whore.

I'll correct you, I'm a likable, generous, compassionate, funny, intelligent, highly gifted, unique and multi talented human being able to entertain people musically, artistically, verbally, visually and textually. It's these attributes, which contribute to my popularity both online and in the real world. Now if you can't handle that truth, I suggest you avoid clicking on my threads, but if you do, you could be missing out on a lot of entertainment and learning.

Humble too

What Is your Setup?
Maybe you should start with that when you want to start a discussion about it

With a Steam Age system like that? Certainly not.

These threads are about view counts, folks should really stop feeding him.

I'll say again, if you or anyone else isn't interested in contributing positively, then don't post in them, it surly isn't that hard now is it? Do I really have that much power over your hands lol? In any case, view counts really only serve as statistical reference to see if the threads I create are interesting enough for people to participate in them, I don't have anything to prove when it comes to how popular they are generally. I've created thousands of threads over the past 24 years for different reasons across multiple forums.

Like the other guy, you can toddle off too, to mummy.

It's still a more than capable system for practically everything I've ever thrown at it from music production, gaming, and graphics production. It does over-clock to 3.56 to 4 gHz and able to sustain it. The mobo actually supports up to 48 Gigs, but I really wasn't prepared to spend anymore on ram at the time. 20 Gigs has been perfectly adequate.

Well, if it suits your needs then that's all that matters...

but it's certainly nothing to write home about at all. These days most people's phones have more juice (in fact often a lot more).

Well, if it doesn't wind up boiling down to you trying to get everyone to look at your funky graphic
design projects or whatever, maybe next time I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

You can't compare a mobile phone, even the fastest today to desktop PC's. Without getting technical...

of course you can.

'mobile phones are a lot smaller than most desktop PCs'

there you go, I compared them. s'easy if you know how.

uhm... that was just to illustrate just how outdated your system is...

(...and yes, of course you could compare e.g. plugin count, on which most current phones would beat your machine by a few miles.)


by the way, if you want to get technical: do you really have a PCIe 3.0 graphics-card in a 2.0 slot? (A card that is worth at least twice as much as most of the rest of the system (HDs aside and disregarding possible collector's value)).

Whilst playing Project Cars 2, Battleield 3 or 4 at 1080P at max settings, there is virtually no perceptible negative impact in game by using the Sapphire RX 570, only positive with the increased performance provides over my previous card Nvidia GForce GTS 250 1 Gig card as well in video encoding which is about 4 to 8 times faster, and able to be completed with the help of the extra 8 gig of onboard ram. With the CPU overclocked by 1000 MHz from stock, any possible bottlenecks are pretty much eliminated and thus the system is balanced with the newer card.

Personally, I've never seen any modern mobile phone run a single VST instrument.

Mine certainly does (well, not as VST, but that's beside the point).
