    Brian , tnx reply , I like working weak signal DX and I fine that a good clean waterfall , being it the Flex WF or on CwSkimmer WF  ... The weaker traces show better . This may have more to do with the Graphic Card ? 
    Tnx Ed N5DG

    I’m using an Intel i7 8700 and it works great.  No issues at all.

    Running one Intel and one AMD for SSDR, both works without any issus. But many would say one should stay with Intel because they are the main player. Can't argue against it, while my new PC's are Intel only. I'd say based on my experience that SSD disks are important (more or less standard in todays new PC's) and that graphic card performance are worth spending your money on.
