The P9X79 has all the features I need, including support for multiple GPUs, which might be useful if I was to add the NVIDIA Tesla C2075 companion processor, but I don’t have plans to at this point as my 1920×1080 HD workflows don’t need any more GPU power. There aren’t currently too many options for LGA 2001 CPUs and with one exception, all my previous and current video editing systems have ASUS motherboards. Premiere Pro is built on a 64bit architecture and supports multi-core processing so this should dramatically improve my video render times.
Moving to a higher clock speed will speed-up video render times but adding another two cores, all running at a higher clock speed, will add even more processing power. Thanks to Videoguys for getting me started on this build with their DIY 9 specs, on which this build is based. I’ve listed the actual prices I paid from my local computer supplier, NCIX.
My OS will be Windows 7 Professional 64bit. The USB 3.0 was a late add-on for me and I used it for both speedy client file transfers to external USB 3.0 hard drives and for my always-on and backed-up-nightly 10TB Sans-Digital external RAID tower that backs-up of my video editing and storage drives. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 video card (Premiere Pro GPU supported)Ģx2TB RAID 0 Video editing hard drives – Western Digital Black (Hardware RAID using ASUS Drive Xpert)ĥ00GB SATAII operating system hard drive – Western Digital Blueīasically this was a quad core system with a good amount of RAM, a Premiere Pro supported NVIDIA CUDA card for GPU acceleration, and traditional spinning hard drives. Intel Core i7 920 CPU 4 core 2.66 GHz LGA 1366 I called her “Green” because her NVIDIA co-branded Coolermaster case had green ribbing, a transparent green side panel, and emitts a green LED glow from its fan. My Core i7 920 system was cutting edge when I built it and although I did upgrade a few of the components over the years, it still is basically the same system I started with and is still blazing fast.
