Hi there everyone!
I am wondering how is your new 8 core Mac pro running @Garehead? I am planing to get one myself and I have been debating whether getting the 6 core or the 8 core! I think I am going to buy the 8 core due to the L3 cache as it has been mentioned in this thread but also since there is not much difference in turbo boost speed between both processors.
However, would love to have some input from you as a new Mac Pro owner now that you have been using it for a month already. I am using C8.5 at the moment but will upgrade to C9 as soon as I buy the Mac Pro. Also how much ram did you get at the end? Would 32 be enough or 64 be better? I tend to use a lot of VST instruments and planing to do some orchestral music in the future as well.
Thanks,
Javier
