Since you do all your processing internal, there will be no change in your sound... |

i don t know how cubase "renders" to audio, but at least in logic u ll get a better quality if using vsti's. ( rendering in real-time, bad latency = bad sound ) n if u get a soundcard with good asio-drivers, your cpu can take more too = more voices = better quality.
i ve got an amd2700 with 1gb ram n works good.

I would say the priority list is:
1. Powerful computer.
2. Good speakers & amp.
3. Better sound card.
