Rendering in HD is the cause of system low on memory.

August 5, 2009 at 5:18 pmI am not the expert, but I think many people are having trouble with .wmv in Vegas.
I think there is a way to convert them to .avi with a free video converter called Super(c).
Perhaps if you Google it you can find Super(c) converter, and convert your .wmv’s to .avi, and give that a test run? As I think that might be your problem.

I don’t like Dell and would recommend HP Workstation but since you can’t afford one, try a small builder like iBuyPower.com. Usually gaming PC’s are perfectly suited for video editing and small builders let you select your own components which allows you to trim the cost here and there.

August 6, 2009 at 11:09 amyes ive been looking at ibuypower pcspecialist and other build your own pc websites, and im looking at a intel 2quad core 2.83ghz, 8gb ram 64bit vista base unit, no monitor and cheapest so far is around £540 , would you reccomend these sites they seem to come out quite a bit cheaper but i wonder why?
i prresume a quad core at 2.83ghz should be more than enough to carry out the task. what is overclocking, i have some basic info on it and it allows the processor to go higher thans it stated eg. 2.83ghz overclocked to 3.00ghz for a short period, is this correct.

I only have experience with iBuyPower and yes, I would recommend them. I usually build PC’s for a friend of mine but this time around he needed one fast and I didn’t have time to build one so after a bunch of research I directed him to iBuyPower for his new QuadCore. He is very happy with the PC and I saw it and it was very well built. I’d have no problem ordering from them. I’m sure the other small builders are just as dedicated because it’s really word of mouth that brings them business so they want happy customers.

August 7, 2009 at 5:27 pmIt is always better to build your own and not as hard as some people might think. This way you know what you’re getting and you can upgrade as needed because you know how it is built. 😉

August 7, 2009 at 5:30 pmyou can also buy kits, but be sure to check the kit out, to make sure it is all Intel standard parts, or else you will end up back in the same boat you are in now.
Please adhere closely to the specs on https://www.johnrofrano.com

August 9, 2009 at 2:52 pmive been looking around and found some good stuff about building your own pc, but i might not need to as pcspecailist.co.uk have some great prices, tell me what you think of this im sure this will be capable of HD editing and rendering,
64bit and a windows 7 64bit uprage voucher(as windows 7 looks alot better than vista in memory and perforamnce)
its £580 including VAT but i can claim VAT back from the business which takes it to £504. i think this is good, what are your thoughts, it should be powerfull enough

August 9, 2009 at 3:01 pmEverything looks good except that the power supply is extremely small at 350W. I wouldn’t use anything less that 500W becasue you are sure to add more hard drives later and will need the extra power. The other problem is that it only has one hard drive. You need a second physical hard drive for your video projects. Preferably 500GB or greater. Perhaps you plan to add that yourself? Other than that, it looks like a powerful PC.
