Hi there, I'd like to build a new DAW in the next 2 weeks. Budget is tight and so I have chosen the following components to buy: CPU: • AMD Athlon X2 7750 Black Edition (K10 - Kuma core), 2x 2.70GHz, boxed AD775ZWCGHBOX - €68,21 Cooler: • Arctic Cooling Freezer 64 Pro PWM - €16,65 • http://www.arctic-cooling.com/cpu2.php?idx=80&data=1&disc= Mainboard: • Asrock AOD790GX/128M AMD790GX - €84,03 • http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.asp?Model=AOD790GX/128M Memory: • 2x2048MB Kit OCZ Platinum XTC 1066MHz CL5 - €44,87 • http://www.ocztechnology.com/products/memory/ocz_ddr2_pc2_8500_platinum_sli_ready_edition Power Supply: • RASURBO GaminX & Power GAP565 - 550 Watt - €43,95 • http://www.rasurbo.de/netzteil_gap565.html Any thoughts on this? What I'd like to know the most is, how does the AMD790GX perform under Linux? Is it fully supported (chipset, graphics [very important], Which kernel would I need at least? Does anybody here use an AMD790GX board? Are you happy with it? Any known problems? I'd be really grateful for any thoughts, experience, info, whatever. Greets, Raphael ;) -- ________________________________ "A mind is like a parachute - It doesn't work if it's not open." |- - - - - - - Frank Zappa - - - - - - -| _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
