I am running DP4 on a 400mghz, 512mb G3. I know i will need more power and more ram at some point. I can upgrade my cpu to 800mghz and stuff all the ram I can get into the thing, but will this be worth the effort? MOTU couldn't tell me too much about this, and I got the impression that altivec is not necessarily essential to performance. If anyone has any knowledge on this subject, I would certainly appreciate the input. I want to avoid spending a fortune, for now.
thanks |

Thanks for the reply. Your information is surprising. Most of the feedback I have gotten on this subject so far has been leaning toward buying a new G5. That's a lot of dough! I want to put my money into plug ins. Can you tell me what your friend was using as far as plug ins? I should also note that I can upgrade the processor to 1.5ghz, or 1.0 with sonnettech....around $400. worth it? I don't know. |
