Hello,
My son starts as a parttime professional HD video editor, ask me to build a trustable PC because his pc now (E6600, PNY nvidia quadro 4000,) stucks the video while editing and is slow in loading heavy files.
He uses Adobe CS (more specific premiere, aftereffects, photoshop) avid Media composer, ama to name the most important ones.Most of his work is editing fullHD video and transcoding, not that much rendering.
The pc will be used only for this purpose. His budget for the hardware is 1000-1200 euro's. He can recup the quadro 4000, Harddisks and dvd. "Azerty.be en alternate.be are 2 big shops the first one is cheapest, but 150km driving, the next is 20km driving." A list will be easier to overview:
-silent system
-No WiFi or bluetooth needed.
-firewire and usb3
-fast loading heavy files from prof camcorders
-balanced hardware (round the quadro), no harddisks, dvd, videocard orperiferals
-1000-1200 euro price without software
-upgrading later would be considered as a + point
-eventually 4k video editing would be a dream, not a must.
So I look around and found 2 possibilities:
A Socket 1150
Motherboard: Z87 expert_______________________ 185 euro
Processor (haswell) i7 4770K____________________285 euro
Processorcooler Noctua NH 14____________________72 euro
Crucial M500 120Gb 2stuks (progs+cache)_________130 euro
Corsair VengeancePro cmy16gx3m2a1600C9R _____155 euro
Corsair AX760_________________________________139 euro
Fractal design define4R__________________________85 eur
Total +/-_____________________________________1051 eur
1. is this well balanced wuth the quadro 4000?
2 will there be cooling enough for overclocking, but not extreme?
3 as far as i know the cpu is the heaviest, so upgrading only possible via RAM.
B Socket 2011
Motherboard: Asus P9X79de luxe________________ 310 euro
Processor i7 3930k____________________________490 euro i7 4820k_______________280 euro
Processorcooler Noctua NH 14____________________72 euro
Crucial M500 120Gb 2stuks (progs+cache)_________130 euro
Corsair VengeancePro cmy16gx3m2a1600C9R _____155 euro
Corsair AX760_________________________________139 euro
Fractal design define4R__________________________85 eur
Total +/-_____________________________________1381 eur 1171euro
1. the first 6core processor makes the cost too high so i take the i7 4820K,
or which things will I replace to save money while the pc will be optimum balanceb?
2. with this socket i can upgrade
In order of workpower and future upgrade would workstation motherboards be an option (xeon processors).
Is it possible with workstation socket 1150 en xeonprocessors to make that system upgradeable, and what with the socket 2011 workstations is that a better solution in the long run? Or other sockets?
And what about 4k ultraHD, or is that price too high for me?
I would appreciate highly your advices
Best regards
