I'm pretty sure I need an i7 with some good graphics because I do a lot of Hd video editing and RAW photograply of lingerie models around the world. (I know, rough work, but somebody's got a do it). Not only models, but hotels, beaches, and all around beautiful scenery. I don't always get to...

Thanks for the input. I guess I'll wait a till next year, and build an Ivy Bridge system. That will likely give me the most bang for the buck. I purchased a lifetime plan of AnyDVDHD, and I use BDRebuilder to compress. I don't even compress to the higher qualities and the backup/copies are...

It sounds like the 16gb is not going to help me. I'll have to do more research to see if my apps can take advantage of Sandy Bridge. BTW, by ripping, I mean backing up my existing Blue Rays to my HDD to stream to my media player so I don't have to mess with the discs. I've lost enough discs...

I have a 2 year old HP oem i5-750 PC, and I do lot's of video editing and HD Blue ray ripping and compressing. I use AnydvdHd, BDrebuilder, ClownBD, and Pinnacle Studio 14Hd. No gaming. I'm using a Nvidea GT 430. The RAM in my system is 8gb of PC3-10600 MB/sec and I run a 64 bit system so I...

Thanks again for the input. My system currently has 8 Gb of RAM, and I thought that was sufficient, although I can easily bump it to 16gb. The last 2 replies seemed to disagree on upgrading the i5 750 which is pretty expensive anyway. I am on a 64 system, but I'll have to check the apps to...

Thanks. I'll look into it.

I do a lot of video processing of home HD video and backing up and reencoding Blue ray collection to my hard drives. Also a lot of Raw still image photography in my business. I also hate slow computers and my system has delays sometimes even thought I just reinstalled W7. I am getting ready...

Thanks for replies. I had an SSD with a 2nd HD on a laptop, but it was a pita making sure all data was kept on 2nd HD. I gotta admit that the loading of big programs was amazingly fast!

I'm rippiing lots of bluerays from my collection on to my pc and now have 2 external drives and 1internal drive. I want to change my main "C" drive to a 2 TB instead of one. I can't afford SSd, but i really want spead. This is on a nonclocked system HP computer with a MSI MS-7613 (Indio)...

My current Dell is bogging down with my new HD camera editing. I've built computers in the past, but it's been a few years. I'm just looking for the sweet spot in a cpu, mobo, memory, and Hard drive. Budget is not a big concern, but I don't want to waste money on speed that I won't use. I'll...
