Hi all,
I have been trying to put together a reliable workstation for video editing. I thought the 3930k and either the x79 or extreme9 would do the trick. However after reading the HORROR threads about the performance. lock-ups and tweaking to get them running. I am not so sure about those anymore. I am a novice builder intermediate editor.
I bought a nvidia quadro 4000 card to use. That is done.
I am looking at this card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819116501
I7-3770k but it has a graphic card in it, I think? Will that conflict or will it 'crossfire'?
Also if you know of a MOBO that has 2 -16 pci slots for a later gtx580 card to add, or a gtx680 still thinking for down the road on that one... Please paste one in if you have a suggestioni. I like Workstations boards as I was sold on the idea that they get a bit more testing before shipped. How true that is?? I would like to have a built in IEEE for stop animation as well.
Software is Adobe CS6 and Adobe Media Composer BTW....
Figured SSD for C&D drive and a 7200 RAID for storage... Your thoughts?
