| Need help with compiling system
Question of dustdancer:
April 2010
Hello together,
I am faced with the difficult step to me once again deliver a system together. This time I will optimize it to DV editing. Focus is on CS4 CS5 soon. The most I would use AE, Premiere and HP. However, it will be added to C4D in the course of the year. There is a lot of work with 7D material!
After I finished reading through the various benchmarks, I was until recently the view that there should be an i7 930th the i7 860 was synonymous closer still in my Choice. the i7 980 would be great, but I doubt there will be because the power increase in the ratio price. Now I read today on the slashCAM Home, which makes the "new" AMD Phenom II 1090T X6 fairly good job in terms of DV editing and rendering. Now makes me wonder which of the three (four should take), I.
The next problem was raised with me the hard drive configuration.
Makes this an SSD system disk make sense? If so, what is recommended? If you play in addition to the system nor the Adobesuite and C4D on the plate?
Up here, I had picked out the Intel X25-M 160GB G2 Postville.
Since I have never before operated a RAID (times of the initial games of a software RAID 5 with my old amd 64), I wonder synonymous, whether it makes sense for video editing from two Western Digital Caviar Black WD2001FASS in a RAID to operate, the performance gain is 0 or maginal? If so, enough of the onboard RAIDControleraus, odersollte you still get a PCIe RAIDkarte? If PCIeController what? Or should there be a s.besten RAID01 with three hard disks or a RAID10 with 4 be?
Also, a new monitor must come. Here I am really stuck at the Dell UltraSharp of as me a "professional" monitor is too expensive. My favorite is clearly the 27 "although the price for the 24 talks," the color fastness and the Resolutionfür the 27 ". Now I'm thinking but synonymous in the 30" on ...
Also, the graphics card gives me a headache. Nvidia is clear to me by the CS5 support, only what makes sense? "Worth" is a Quadro or "enough" is a 285er or 470? If a Quadro really makes sense, then buy one now Midrage (700 ¬) or rather wait for the Fermiquads?
I take everything together again briefly:
What:
CS4, CS5 later AE, Premiere, PS, later on c4d
much material h264 7D
1st Which CPU:
i7 930, i7 860, (i7 980x) or perhaps Phenom II X6 1090T
price / performance, plays on the 980x to a subordinate role
2nd Makes an SSD (as system disk) make sense? If so, synonymous the CS Suite and C4D install on it? What can you recommend
3rd Video disks in RAID operate? What is RAID? 0, 01, 10 or 5?
4th If RAID is the onboard solution well or rather a PCIe card? If so, which?
5th Which monitor? So far in the narrower Choice Dell UltraSharp 24 ", 27" and 30 "
6th Which graphics solution makes sense? 285 or 470? Or Quadro?
Thank you ever for the help

I7 @ A board with 980 and USB3.0, eg of gigabytes so that you are prepared, (has a lot of slots and can raid) for the coming data. Nvidia graphics card, because you have to wait for CS5 what calls.
Reply dustdancer:
but the 980 makes sense in terms of price performance? the amd it is so synonymous with USB3 boards
Reply Alf_300:
What already makes sense?
If I want to use the Manufacturer Programs collaborate with Intel or if it is for once a series, the board works, then I will not haggle at 50 or 100 ¬.

For video, I would rather tend to Intel. I have an i7 860, which is already not bad times of her performance.
2nd Makes an SSD (as system disk) make sense? If so, synonymous the CS Suite and C4D install on it? What can you recommend
For temporary files / SSD outsourcing can make sense, otherwise you realize it is not much if the system and the CS suite is started, etc. times.
3rd Video disks in RAID operate? What is RAID? 0, 01, 10 or 5?
Raid 5 is a good compromise on data security, performance and number of required HDs.
4th If RAID is the onboard solution well or rather a PCIe card? If so, which?
Onboard software solutions are just quasi Raid, better is a real hardware controller, for example, of a 3Ware, Intel and ICP Vortex.
5th Which monitor? So far in the narrower Choice Dell UltraSharp 24 ", 27" and 30 "
It is important for a monitor, that he has no TN panel but MVA / PVA or IPS.

ON-board with me is much faster than RAID0 LaCie 4big

If you want a truly fast external raid, one comes to a Fibre Channel solution would not be around, but it costs synonymous accordingly.
A real PCIe hardware RAID controller relieves synonymous halt the CPU and offers advantages http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID#Hardware-RAID else see about hardware raid vs fake raid. It so bring something if you take a high-quality hardware RAID controller and no fake RAID controller, otherwise you can just stick with the onboard solution. For example Raid 5 or Raid 10 you would need something like: http://www.3ware.de/.1494740228-9650SE-4LPML-Bulk-Raid-Controller
