Im the same as Hollowcell where my system doesnt crash. Ive used a little app called XPlite to strip the OS of all the crap thats not needed. Also i stop all the services thats not crucial for a DAW system.

I can get around 80-85 tracks audio with 5 effects on each channel but i need to tweak the buffer sizes from default within Nuendo 2. But hopefully when steinberg make nuendo/sx available to use hyperthreading they`ll be more powerfull. I hope.
The 5 effects were: Mod Delay , Double Delay, Reverb, Q filter, DaTube.
All of these were Inserts
