Nvidia Fx 3800 in Premiere Pro
XEON Quad Core processor 2.27 Ghz with 12 Gb ram and 1,000 Gb hard drive basically for use with High definition editing.It is equipped with a NVIDIA FX 3800 which works very well with H264 codec even with Premiere Pro 1.5.1 but, there has been a minor problem when using Photoshop when it says” Display driver Nividia Windows Kernel Mode Driver Version 191.87 Stopped responding and has fully recovered”.259.12 Quadro -Win 64 bit has been installed by Dell and seems to have solved the problem. You will need a 64 bit system if you intend upgrading to CS5 Premiere Pro..
I too have a Dell Dimension 8400 Multi Processor 3.2Ghz Pentium with hyperthreading which does a resonable job still,but, is slow rendering. If you get hyperthreading on the Precision Workstation it could push the price up by $1,000 depending on the size of the processor.We mainly go to Pro tape HDV but, got a blu-ray burner included just in case.
The only reason we upgraded was to more effectively use the H264 mov. files from the Canon 5D Mark II 1920 x 1080 which slowed the Dell 8400 down.The Exported High definition editing to pro tape is broadcast quality from both , the Dell Dimension 8400 as well as the Dell Precision T5500.Note: DISPLAY DRIVER malfunction ,any ideas , anyone???????????
