I'm buying a centrino powered notebook in the next couple of weeks...........is anyone successfully running Cubase SX on such a machine? If so, what are the specs, specifically the RAM, processor speed and sound hardware? And anyone got a Dothan machine yet? (I want one of these, muchly muchly) |
||||||||

Most RAM you can get, If you have to go for a Centrino then the fastest you can get, and a fly gorilla monkey fighter. |

Siiiiiiiiiiiiick................love that crazy gorilla shit........... |

oh yeah, and whats wrong with a centrino processor? Low power usage, onboard wirless and bluetooth............... if it can run the apps I want..............sounds ok to me....... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Low power usage...also lower clock speeds. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||

The Dothan processors run at up to 2GHz........... surely thats going to be enough, with 512 MB of RAM (1 GB if I can afford it).................. even a 1.7 GHz Centrino with the same RAM should do it.....souldn't it? I'm not sure, to tell you the truth, thats why I was looking for someone who is doing this or knows of it being done........... and with what sound card? surely not the onboard sound???? |

When I have a 3.06GHz Hyperthread P4 in my main laptop with 512MB and I still manage to max the processor out relatively easily. Onboard sound should be fine, there is no need for external unless you need more audio i/o's which really you shouldn't need. |
||||||||

Cheers............. I can live without extra i/o's, and I don't plan to do excessively heavy processing......... i'm moving to the uk and wanted the notebook to get me through until i'm settled and I can get my desktop sent over...... hence the centrino............... low power usage should be ideal for travelling around for a couple of months and making tunes when inspired......... |

Alienware Alien51-m (oldschool model) p4 3.2 ghz 1GB ram 60GB HD Consider purchasing an externial audio interface, it will take alot of the load off your processor when working with audio, and reduce latency. |

Yeah, a P4 would rock, but I think it would be a bit of over-kill given that my desktop is a P4 2.4GHz with a gig of RAM etc. etc.......... and I want the notebook for true portability and the wireless and bluetooth connectivity of the Centrino chip-set.......what external audio do you recommend? |
