Hi all,
been a while, basically my home brew P55M-UD2, i7 870, GT-240 dual display, 8GB 1333MHz recording studio rig has been running smooth as silk for over a year with no worries or even a k-panic, until the other day so with nothing to report, I've been very quiet.
I think it's time to upgrade the RAM.
I run Logic Studio 9 every day, for hours, punishing the system big time. And for the first time I am getting SBBOD. Not overly worried as I stuck 2 different manufacturers in there when I built it, cheapest RAM off ebay, 'temporarily' as "oh I'll upgrade as soon as I can" was the plan. Geek benches 10700 and has never twinged so i never bothered with it.
But now thigs are looking RAM related, anyone used to Logic will know what I am on about.
2 questions for you experts:
1). how much RAM can I throw in there? I think it's 16GB which is what I want in there.
2). Corsair Vengeance or XMS3 1600GHz which one or does it make no real difference?
advice gladly taken on board.
cheers, Aspen
