New PC for HD editing

[shownomarcy]

Hi all,

its really time to buy a new pc and I want it to be able to edit hd videos easily. (there could be discussion about it already, but this needs a topic now )

I tried to choose the basic stuff with the help of a friend, what do you think about these? (Im really stupid for this)
cpu, video card and motherboard:
amd phenom x6 1075
Radeon HD 6850
ASRock 890fx

Also feel free to recommend an other set, or write what you use and what is it enough for?

I really wonder for example how strong pc do I need to insert like 3-4 half-one hour long full hd videos (on 3-4 timelines) and be able to make multicam view in sony vegas (so to see, play all parallely)??? I hope somebody has some experiences like this.

Thanks!

I have Intel pentium Quad Core (2,33 GHz each kernel), 8 GB Ram DDR2 (800 MHz), grafik karte NVidia GT 230 (1,5 GB) and mother board with 6Mb cache.For HD video (Blu-Ray) in Sony Vegas my PC need 2-3 hours or 1,5-2 hours in TMPEGEnc Work 4. But I need more stronge PC))
For Example: Intel Pentium i7 (3,9 GHz each kernel) + 12 GB DDR3 (1600 MHz) Ram, one of the best grafik karte from Nvidia and mother board with 16 MB cache and freoncooling. I think it would be Monster))))

Well, its okay to wait some hours for rendering..., I wonder what about editing? If I put 2 HD videos and there are fading/other effect, does it run normally if you check the preview?
(my pc is quite old, now I cant even play full hd files, thats why Im asking stupid questions, I dont know what is enough what for but Im patient when rendering comes )

it all depends on wich is the budget Marton. Tell us how much do you want to spend at max. and we will suggest you something eheheh.

I personally just bought a new PC (assembled from the store), with this hardware:

-Intel Core i7 2700K (Overclocked at 4.20 Ghz). This include Corsair special cooling for the overclock
-16 Gb RAM DDR3 1600Mhz
-SSD Hard disk 120Gb with the OS
-2Tb SATA3 HDD
-BluRay master
-Graphic Card Nvidia GTX 580
-Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.

This is a monster but the price is around 2200 Euro.
I bought it for HD video editing and other heavy programs for projects I do at work.

I've still to try it on Vegas for multicam anway. I will let you know

Damn right!But worth every penny i bet.......

well hardware price went down the last years.
Years ago, buying a good computer was really expensive, if you compare the price now, you can have the same PC for less money...

yeah, I checked now. Only the price of the video card is extreme, the rest o.k.
