1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Video Editing using Sony Movie Studio 12
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
$1000-$1200 I can shop at NCIX.com
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.
Vancouver BC Canada
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. The word "Everything" is not a valid answer. Please list out all the parts you'll need.
Mobo, CPU, RAM, CPU cooler
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
I'll be reusing my OCZ 1000W PS, SATA DVD Drive, PowerColor 6990, Creative X-fi pci-e sound card with front bezel) Bitfenix Colossus XL Case, 2 128GB Crucial M4 in raid-0 and two 1TB storage drives.
6) Will you be overclocking?
Nope.
7) What is the max resolution of your monitor? What size is it?
I currently use a 47" LG LW5700 passive 3D TV hooked to the 6990 via HDMI
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Within a months time.
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? eSATA? Onboard video (as a backup or main GPU)? UEFI? etc.
Please see below these questions.
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If yes, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
Legit windows7 64bit bit license.
Gentleman, how are you? It's been a while and these days I find myself needing a little bit more horsepower. I've been getting into video editing and the rendering times i'm sure can improved.
Besides the above mentioned, I currently have a 965BE cooled with an H50, 16GB 1333, a AMD 6990, and two Crucial M4's in raid-0. This has suited my needs up until now. From what I gather for rendering and encoding Intel is the way to go. Gaming isn't a big priority these days, satisfying clients is.
I have $1000 I can work with but stretch a little if need be. Meaning if we're a little over that it's no big deal. I can purchase everything right from the store at NCIX.
Basically, I only need the Mobo, CPU, and RAM. I can reuse the cooler if need be, I need reliability so overclocking on business oriented equipment is not an option at this time unless of course your are confident in the parts you've chosen.
This is the [H], don't think I don't know how to take [H]ard advice. If you feel a particular combo overclocked will yield me maximum results within my budget but still provide 100% stabability, by all means please do so. I would be happy to report my results based upon your reccomendation.
It seems strange to be the one asking for advice this time. 10% bonus chance in an area of your life for helping me out. Cheers!
