will there ever be an end to my reading list lol?
Thank you for all your comments and advice by the way.
Joeyjojo those benchmark scores show quite a performance difference between the 660 and the R270. The price is very appealing too and powerdirector 12 definitely uses open CL to...
I also think it is worth the extra because if you look at the passmark cpu scores the 4790k (score 11,340) is much better than the xeon E3 1230v3 (score 8,849). The xeon that is comparable performance wise is the E3 1276v3(score 10,570) and atm is working out £10 more than the i7.
Hi doomedspeed. I agree. After the xeon suggestion i have been back on the internet reading up. Any benchmark tests i saw the 4790k is a clear winner. I think its worth the extra money personally. Also read a few posts about xeon and motherboard compatibility issues and i thing the i7 is better...
Thank you for the suggestion of the xeon. I hadnt really looked at them but makes sense seeing as i am not really bothered about OC and will be buying a seperate gpu so igp not really needed. Looking at my build with that CPU the saving could mean that i could get 2 gtx660 in sli. After reading...
I decided to go i7 over the i5 as the hyper threading technology is very beneficial when it comes to rendering times. GPU wise its just to give some cuda cores as again advantageous when it comes to rendering, the 660 seemed to give the most cuda cores for the right money.
So for the most part my system is being built as a replacement for a pc I built some years ago that seems to be just too slow for HD video editing. mainly using Powerdirector 12 and adobe photoshop. It all works but at times pauses and hangs or just doesnt flow which makes editing more of a task...
New build budget of around £1000. Will mainly be used for video editing HD using power director 12 and adobe premier.
CPU Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core £236.34
CPU Cooler Corsair H80i 77.0 CFM Liquid £63.00
Motherboard MSI Z97-G55 SLI ATX LGA1150 £83.96
Memory Corsair Vengeance...
I wasn't sure if the 7800GT would be any good and i think its longer than i think when i built my current pc. Was good in its day but i think things have moved on a lot. Budget wise i would have up-to £200 to spend on a GPU but with so many models its confusing what to choose. I know the on...
Building a new pc mainly for video editing and a bit of gaming.
Most of the video will be shot using an action cam Drift Ghost S in 1080p.
The editing software i will be using is power director 12 on 64bit windows 7 professional.
Please check my components and advice any changes you think...
