Ableton Forum

Dell xps m1730...which is somewhat a gamming system....the reason y i got it is because...

-Intel Core 2 Duo Extreme X9000 (2.8GHz/800MHz)
-4GB shared dual channel DDR2 SDRAM at 667MHz
-17" ultra sharp true life wide-screen
-NVIDIA GeForce 8700M GT


is computer going to be a problem with ableton? or am i going to be just fine?

***the reason y i ask is because someone said this particular computer was made for video games...XPS is made by Alien Ware and i know they are VERY good in the industry...i dont know im just being paranoid lol

thank you for ur help

Hey there...

your system will run perfectly, cant see anything that would be a problem...

dell makes good computers and xps is their gaming system, they had it before they got a hold on Alienware, and the only thing is that the main focus is games which requires a discrete graphics card and a good screen, and pleeeenty of speeeeeeed...


so the difference would be that if you only intend to use it for music, u payed a shitload of cash for a graphics card you wont use... which i assume you cuz u bought it in the first place



have a excellent day my good sir and enjoy your computer!!
