My Friend Robin over at raincomputers.co.uk has done some DAW performance comparisons and general observations with the “Muso” in mind, between Windows 8 and Wndows 7.
So I thought I would share it with you here, His tests are using Cubase rather than Pro Tools but should give a good indication of the performance.
Rain make custom built PC’s for DAW use and have offices in the UK and USA so if you are in the market for a new PC and want something built, tested and ready to rock make sure you check them out.
