  • Anyone using 24-core AMD chips? Success/horror stories?

    Hello folks - I’m considering AMD for the first time. Looking at building a machine that is made to run a lot of hungry VI plugins - modeled instruments primarily - as well as the traditional VSL and Kontakt instruments. If you have a 20+core AMD, can you contrast it to other setups you have or have had? Also, though theoretical answers are what make the internet go ‘round, please answer [b]only[/b] if you have one of these - I’m looking for [b]first-hand[/b] experience with a cpu handling a large template for ten hours a day. I know what the theory is - I’d like to hear about it in practice. And we don’t need to bring price into it. Thanks - Richard
