I put a lot of time, research, and effort into this one! This is the answer to what people often ask me for: A system that is very small, very quiet, inexpensive, and very powerful. This is it! It's in a 2 rack space size (only 19" wide, 15" deep, and 3.5" tall!). It's already built "CGR Near Silent"! No extra charge... you will literally have to put your ear up to it to hear it! Not only that but it houses the latest Intel Sandy Bridge Quad Core i5 and i7 processors! It has a full size DVD Burner (upgradeable to Blue Ray), two hard drives (add more with the eSATA port/ports), up to 16GB of DDR3 1600mhz memory, and full quality dual head video via DVI, HDMI, or Display Port (upgradeable to quad head!). All this at a VERY affordable price, built and tweaked specifically for your audio/video/music needs and software, and complete with Acronis 2011 and a factory restore disk! You know you want one, or two, or three! Combine this with an RME Fireface UFX, or a Steinberg MR-816 and have an incredible mobile recording rig! Please keep in mind, that any PCI or PCIe expansion card in this system must be low profile size. Call or e-mail if you have questions about this.
