To those who have implemented tuning on the PC

I have a few questions for things I'd like to add to the FAQ. I've had a LOT of people PM me asking me questions. Since I haven't implemented this in my own vehicle yet, I cannot answer. Some of these questions don't really have an answer anyways, but maybe collectively we can come up with some good guidelines.
  • What's the minimum processor speed needed to run audio tuning software?
    • For a fully active set-up with pay-for software? (I mention these options because the pay-for and the free software tuning seems to be different in terms of intensity)
    • For a fully active set-up with free software?
    • For a 2-way set-up
    • For a 3-way set-up
    • For a 5.1 set-up
  • What sound cards work for this project?
    • For a fully-active with pay-for software?
    • For a fully active set-up with free software?
    • For a 2-way set-up
    • For a 3-way set-up
    • For a 5.1 set-up

While I completely understand that the minimum processor requirements will vary greatly depending on your set-up and how detailed you want to get with tuning, perhaps we can give people a minimum overall?

I'd also like to ask anyone who has fully implemented tuning in the car to list off their hardware specs and the software they are running. Maybe this will help others that are trying to get started in this game.

I'm also wondering if another sub-forum just for tuning on the CarPC might be a good idea since there's so much information involved with it. Your thoughts?
