Absolutely correct.

Understand that it's not only the processor we're talking about here. You
can have the fastest processor and such and still run into bottlenecks with
your system. We're talking about every single little detail matters in a
system used as a daw. From the bios and how they're setup, to the
motherboard and chipset, what other subcomponents are being used witin the
motherboard, software settings, ram and it's type and latency, and yes, even
who makes your ram. Did you know that a lot of the low-end ram manufacturers
overclock ram in order to get the sticks to run at a higher memory? Not all
dealers or retail stores tell you this, but it is true. And why does it
matter? Because in the creation of audio and video, the machine needs to be
able to run in realtime, or as close as you can get to it; thus the problem
of overcoming latency. Overclocking introduces ocasional spikes or delays
which can lead to problems don the line or drop outs or skipping of audio.
Normally the system can make up for this, but it becomes apparent when doing
audio work or running multiple processes that keep the computer busy.
With off the shelf systems you can sometimes get good if not decent
performance, but with others (low-end dells, hp/compaq) systems, things are
locked in bios so no optimizing there, they use low-end chipsets, and some
overclock certain components to get an apparently faster system. These
things all mean problems! Finally, with intel chipsets, in every generation
there are few that are overall good for anything, while others are more
express/basic sets. You need a system with one of the top of the line
chipsets, it depends on your processor/motherboard/generation though, that's
when the researching of all this stuff comes in.
So this is probably why your system is giving you problems, it doesn't have
to be the latest i7 system, or 1 built by nasa for that matter, but it just
has to be put together correctly and configured correctly!
HTH, D!J!X!

Then what do you need? A computer built by NASA?

Hi. you won't get zero latency for soft synths with that slow of a
processor.
