I was curious of the performance advantage using the newer Intel six core 5600 series chips for MIR, compared to the 5500's.
Would MIR actively use all 12 cores? The pricing for both is not very different from each other.
Thanks

Hi Rob,
I have no practical experiences with the 5600 series at all, but according to the specs te performance seems to be quite good. MIR is running lots of threads, so having as many cores as possible makes sense - MIR will use them! :-)
All the best, Florian
Just curious. Assuming that you had two motherboards with the same memory bus speeds, same video cards etc. The only difference was you had 8 cores at 3.00GHZ (2 x 4 core processors) versus another board with 12 cores at say 2.26 to 2.5GHZ. With the way MIR is designed, which one would MIR find "more powerful" in terms of total instruments on stage etc?
Thanks,
