About every 3-4 years, I do some research and order a new mobo/cpu/memory/video for my desktop at work, and swap out the guts, I have a nice case and the powersupply was replaced about 2 years ago. Time has gone on and I realize that my main system is now 5 years old. My MacBook Pro smokes my PC, so it is time to rebuild the PC.
I have only done a little research so far, but don't know what I should concentrate on to make Vegas really go. I assume that if I build this with Vegas in mind, then Photoshop will thrive on it also.
Generally I am thinking:
Intel
Quad core
SSD boot drive
at least 8 GIG DDR3 Ram
No idea on video card at all?? Want to get something that will work well with Vegas and Photoshop.
I see that there are some companies building dual socket mobos. Would it be insane to run dual-quads?
What else do I need to look at?
Thanks,
KIrk
