Windows 7
Hi,
Right now I am running AE CS4 and someday hope to upgrade to CS5. I would like to upgrade my operating system to Windows 7. What are the benefits of Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate Full. Will Microsoft Windows 7 Professional Full work just as good?Thanks

I run CS4 on Win 7-64 bit professional. Works fine for me.

When I install Windows 7 Professional 64-bit, are there specific guidelines to help the performance of AE, or just the general installation process will do?
Thank you

Also look at this page for articles and info on optimization. How you set up AE, etc., is very important

Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback!
This is the hardware I would like to upgrade to. Trying to keep the budget under $1,000…
Core i7-950 3.06GHz
ASUS P6X58D-E LGA 1366 X58 ATX Intel Motherboard
12gb of RAM -
That hardware is more than fine. Even Windows 7 Home is fine unless you need the advanced features. Just make sure you get the 64-bit version.

I have basically the same setup. Little slower processor speed (2.33). That will work fine. The only really costly thing in addition to that is the video card. For affordability (does that exist in this realm?) I went with NVIDIA Quadro FX 1800, but that was the lowest I found recommended for mograph and what I needed it for. Still $400.00 tho.

My video card is something I will also need to upgrade. I mainly work with Avid so I just picked a basic one off their system requirement list, NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT.
Does the video card help with rendering speed? From what I understand rendering speed is pulled from CPU and RAM?
