I have a huge collection of dvd's and want to rip them fast into Divx/AVI with DVDFab.
I am not interested in playing games and ripping into hd mkv is also not an issue (still many cheap mediaplayers don't support mkv). So, rippig into plain old divx/xvid AVI is good enough.
The main reason for the ripping is simple: having some fun during travelling and when I lend some dvd's to my family it's easier and safer to give them a stick with the avi in stead of the original dvd.
Mainly for that purpose I want to build a new system and I wonder which CPU serves best: Intel or AMD (Phenom II 6X)?
I have already 16 GB of DDR3 1333 RAM and want to use Windows 7 64-bit as OS. I have also a spare nVidia GeForce 9400 GT video card I can use. I'm told that using DVDFab ripping can take advantage using CUDA, but I'm also told that there ase still several issues with CUDA, so I am not intended to go for another video card.
The Phenom II X6 1090T is one of the possibilities, but am I gaining substantial time going for an Intel? And if so, which one? Of course, given the situation that my budget isn't endless (whoes is???). I live in Belgium so I have some prices in euro's. I can have the AMD Phenom II X6 1090T for 159 euro's and if it is worth the price, I want to spent a little more for an Intel, but 200 euro is the max because I want also to have a motherboard with native SATA III 600 and USB 3.0. (Suggestions on this one are also welcome).
Any suggestions?
Thanks for the input.
