Dasterdly Posted September 9, 2004 Posted September 9, 2004 A 3800+ S939 would fit that mobo better. Add 2 36.7 WD Raptors run in raid 0 and it will be an imaging beast. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dasterdly Posted September 9, 2004 Posted September 9, 2004 Imaging is rendering and stuff like that, right? RAID 0 is two HDD working as one. In this setup, HDD speed improves dramatically. When rendering things, one of the biggest bottlenecks is HDD speed. Raid 0 alleviates this. Setting up RAID 0 is the hard part, but it's really simple to do. Once it's setup, it appears as a single HDD in Windows. If you decide to go the Raid 0 route, there will be tons of people here ready to answer any installation questions you have.

TheSternMystic Posted September 9, 2004 Posted September 9, 2004 Aren't Intels better for Imagine (Rendering, Photo/Video editing) than every AMD except the FX's? And if you're gonna be doing alotta Video, you might consider more then a 120GB HD...Maybe two 120GB in Raid 0? Haha, lotsa space.

swifty11212 Posted September 9, 2004 Posted September 9, 2004 well dis is like my dads first time video editin, i dont bother with that, so i think this is decent to work with till he gets more experianced/in to it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSternMystic Posted September 9, 2004 Posted September 9, 2004 With Imagine extra RAM is always nice to have... And are you sure you want that Sound Card? For normal music sorta thing, onboard is just as good. Only time a sound card is nice is when Gaming (Hardware Acceleration and EAX)...Might wanna save yourself the $90?

swifty11212 Posted September 9, 2004 Posted September 9, 2004 nah doom 3 will love it, i have the audigy mp3+ and man my sound works much better, wc3 expac likes it too infact i got alot of games supportin eax, so it will b worth my $90. now when i have the setup fully done, ill annoy the **** outa my dad till he buys it lol, hmmm as for the video card, might get a 9800 aiw hmmm maybe if doom 3 will run nice with a 9600 aiw then i wont need a 9800 aiw, besides i heard that the 9600 runs cooloer than the 9000 series.

cheesewiz6 Posted September 9, 2004 Posted September 9, 2004 Is he messing with DV or analog video if it is DV drop the all in wonder and just get a 9600 it will save you some bread or even better the 256 mb 9600 about the same price as the all in wonder. All you need with DV is firewire and the mobos got that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
