The machine I just put together doesn't quite have the CPU (due mostly to cost) but the rest works out just fine:
Dual nVidia 7900 GS cards and 4 monitors (Optiquest V95 for color fidelity, LG Flatron Wide for aspect, and 2 NEC AccuSync LCD71VMs for extra desktop space 4 Gigs RAM Intel Core Dual 2.4GHz (I'll upgrade to the faster chip when they turn on hyperthreading and the price comes down a bit) Asus P5N32-SLI mother board 4 x 300Gig Seagate SATA striped for working space 2 x 300Gig Seagate IDE RAID1 for the OS Plus 7 machines in the basement set up as major disk storage (18TBytes) and as a render farm. The only problem is that the machines in the basement were all purchased as disk storage only, and most have Celerons in them :( Gigabit E throughout. richard On Sat, 2007-01-20 at 22:06 +0100, peter wrote: > hello all, > > I am preparing a workshop open source video + > for this I want to built a machine optimised for best performance of > cinelerra. > + am looking for what parts to buy. > Being a hardware nono myself, could you give me some advise? > > Who has experience with the configuration on the heroine website? > > Double Dual Core Opteron > 4 Gig RAM > 500 GB SATA drive > Tyan motherboard > Gigabit ethernet > > Does anybody use this, what are your experiences > - any alternatives for the motherboard? > - I work wit an ATI Radeon 9200 graphics card, it works but has caused > problems in the past, which card do you prefer? > > What 64 bit distribution would you recommend? > > > thanks > peter > > http://www.constant.irisnet.be/vaa/ > > > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Cinelerra mailing list > [email protected] > https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra -- - Richard C.
