I found with the 4GB of ram limit the number of frames I could stack with RegiStar was limited. ImagesPlus and Photo Shop were also slow with 150+ MB images.
I will let you all know how well or otherwise it goes. I hope it does what I want as I don't want to suffer from buyers remorse.
Have I done the correct thing? Has anyone any experience with these supposedly fast beasts?
