Hi,
i'm Building a 4k Editing Machine for a client, that needs to be able to handle Redcode Raw "live" in Premier and also AE. I'm not 100% sure, what settings he is using, but i believe it's RC42 and 7,5:1 in his 4k Red Camera - but with 60 FPS, so probably about 100 MB/s.
As said above, the machine has to handle it in live 4k ;) Price doesn't really matter, so i came up with that:
Oh - the GPU, a Red Rocket and a Blackmagic Decklink Extreme are already "at Hand", so they are not in the Basket^^
(Beware - it's a German Website!^^)

- 2x Intel Xeon E5-2643v2 (the "beefiest" E5 with 3,5 GHz baseclock and 6-Cores)
- 2x Thermalright SilverArrow IB-E Extreme to cool the Stuff
- 1x ASUS Z9PE-D8 Dual-CPU
- 64 GB G.Skill RipJawsX DDR3-2133 RAM
- 2x 128 GB 840 Pro SSD's (System, RAID-0)
- 2x 1 TB 840 SSD's (Adobe Cach, or "actual Workdrive", also RAID 0)
- 4x 4TB WD RED SAS (RAID5, drive between "Work" and "Storage"..Project-Drive, probably)
- 1x Adaptec 8805 PCIe x8 for the SAS-Drives in Dual-Channel
- 1x ICY BOX IB-544SSK for Dual-Channel Compatibility
- 1x ICY BOX for the SSD's (which isn't really necessary...)
- 1x NZXT Phantom 820 Big Tower to house it
- 1x Fortron Aurum Pro Gold PSU (1000 Watt, i calculated the max. usage should be around 850-900 Watt)
And for the Storage of actual Projects, 2x 18 TB NAS (so ~ 30 TB of Storage in RAID-5) with Dual-Core CPUs...not sure if they are fast enough though.
~ 10k €
So, what do you think? That Monster should be able to handle Full 4k Live Editing...or not? :D
Since I am going to have to support this thing, it's not going to get Overclocked or anything like that (That's why the Xeon E5 with the highest Base-Clock).
(Since this is a bit on a time frame, i'm going to Post this also at Linus' Forum...please don't kill me! :D)
