So what are we supposed to store on SSD? I thought the OS and all applications? Please explain.
And I'll follow all advices I'm getting here, will order my parts in 2 weeks from now. As for CUDA cores, please check this out if you not already know it: http://www.studio1productions.com/Articles/PremiereCS5.htm Scroll down to "First Benchmark Test Using CS6 (Updated 12/08/12" According to this test there is not much performance difference between a card with 96 or 1500 CUDAs; timeline render is 10% faster. So what do extra DUCAs provide with? Real-time playback of filtered videos or effects? And happy holidays to you and all the others.
