Looking to upgrade my current G4 and this might be an dumb question but then again it might not.
Would it be better (better meaning: faster, more stable, less cpu load, etc..) to have one G4 with one fast cpu (1.25 gig for example) or say a slower G4 (800, 867, etc..) with dual cpu's? I would be using the G4 to do audio, soft-synth, sample, etc. and basically anything audio related. Maybe its an obvious question and answer, but just thought I would ask before I buy. THANKS for the info!!! ![]() |

if you can wait 6 months, i would suggest waiting on a entry level G5, should be around the same price range(maybe a little more) at that time.
What Ram is in the 1.25 ? if the Ram is the same bus/amount then go for the dual 800, since most "higher power apps" tend to divide the workload of the system. But if the 1.25 is using like DDR ram, then i would have to go with it, since that is a little bit more of an edge over sdram. if it came down to it, i would suggest trying to get the fastest Dual processor you can, and wait LATER to upgrade the other stuff in a system. you can Add more ram, HDs, better video, etc.. down the road. You just don't add a new cpu to a mac (atleast i don't think it is cost effect to add those pci cpu cards) I would not buy ram from apple either, they are extremly expensive. Infact i would suggest you buy the mac somewhere else online to avoid taxes. Xajen I hoped this helped some. Ce message a été modifié par Xajen - sam. 18 oct. 2003, 06:53. |
