  Any ‘gotchas’ on new system specs?…

  Posted by Jimmy Brunger on June 22, 2007 at 1:11 pm

  Hi all,

  Hoping to upgrade to a new interim system in the next couple of weeks that I hope to run for a few months until we go HD…

  Wondered if anyone knew of any glaring problems I might face using it mainly as an AE workstation (some Premiere/Audition/PS/Combustion work too)

  Stuff like PCI blackhole issues, hardware conflicts, software/hardware conflicts – plugins problems, etc? Cheers in advance guys: –

  Windows XP Pro 32 (SP2)
  Adobe Production Studio Premium (CS2 apps)
  additional AE7 plugs: Knoll LF Pro 2.5 / trapcode suite / Zaxwerks)
  Nucleo Pro
  Combustion v3

  ————-

  1x AMD Athlon X2 Dual 4200+
  ASUS a8N-SLi motherboard
  4GB RAM (DDR 400 dual channel)
  nVidia 7900GS gpu (GDDR3 256mb)
  Decklink Pro (Short PCI 66MHz)
  110GB (boot/apps) / 80GB (media)/ 600GB RAID 0 drives (footage)

  My current config is in my sig below for reference.
  Any advice very welcome.

  Cheers,
  Jim.

  *Production Studio Premium / *Combustion 3
  ————————————-
  Win XP Pro SP2 / Intel P4 3GHz / 2GB RAM / GeForce FX5200 / DeckLink Pro / Sony BVM-20G1E / DVS SDI Clipstation / 110GB boot/80GB media/600GB RAID-0
