The AMD Phenom II series is a line of powerful, high-efficiency processors. Your Rain computer includes the new Phenom II X6 6-Core processor capable of amazing performance without extra heat and noise. Combined with a 9MB cache, Direct Memory Connect Technology and Hyper Transport 3, there's no limit to what you can create.

Your Rain computer uses 1333MHz DDR3 Dual Channel memory. By using matched pairs of memory modules, overall performance is increased. The memory in your Rain computer is designed for high reliability, low latency and low heat.

Unlike a hard drive, Random Access Memory (RAM) has no moving parts. So data transfer is many times faster than a conventional hard drive. The combination of a powerful processor and a large amount of main memory creates a system capable of more tracks, effects, layers, plug-ins and virtual instruments.

Important: You must choose Windows 7 Pro [64-bit] to utilize 8GB or 16GB of memory.

The high performance hard drives in your Rain computer are engineered for fast data transfer up to 6Gb/s. Each drive operates at 7200RPM, using a 32MB or 64MB cache (buffer) to prevent the data bottlenecks that lead to glitches, dropouts and distortion.

You can also configure your Rain with the new generation of Solid State Drives (SSD) for light speed streaming. With no moving parts, SSD gives you instant access to all your data. The SATA III connection streams your media files at up to 6 gigabits per second.
