At the same price I could either get a dual 2.8 with 1 gig ram or a dual 2.0 gig with 4 gigs. Whats the best option? Cubase audio demands good cpu, as I understand, but softsynths and specially soft samplers need more ram?
Upgrading from a 800 Mhz G4, I know I will recieve satisfaction, but still, I dont want to reach the roof after 1 more year. |

The most powerful CPU! The ram you can be it extending little by little.

Thanks for a quick reply.
I am running 768 MB ram now, and the Halion player stutters when playing 3 or more instruments on it now. Do you think the increased CPU will help me with that? I thought the samples depended on RAM? I dont want the needed configuration soon, I want it now and I want it all |

The G5 is another history. Many of the problems that you can have at the moment will disappear. Everything is easier. You must have well-taken care of with the bandwidth of your hard disk. I have a Lacie Fireware 800 and the combination with the G5 is very good. While controls the ram and the bandwidth, your CPU will be in charge of all the others. Sight if all your system is compatible with Tiger. Still it gives some problems that in just a short time will be solved.

Go with the more powerful CPU. You can add more RAM later, but you're stuck with the cpu you get until you buy a new computer.

I'm going to nod in agreement with everyone here about going with the better CPU and upgrading RAM later. RAM gets a lot more affordable when you decide not to get it through Apple.
