Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: EMC and stepper driver

Speaking of processor speed...AMD has a new one...the 760. It runs at 1.2 GHZ and the Bus speed is 266MHZ. Supports up to 4 Gigs of RAM. Any takers? :)

I am afraid I don't know. There are some hardware and software issues that
other people are far more versed on than I and I think that processor speed
plays a role. Ultimately I found that with an AMD K6 and using steppermod I
have my G320 servo setup capable of going faster than I am comfortable with
and stopped trying to go faster at that point.
