Hey guys,
Well I've begun video encoding and heavy use of my new TDK 8x DVD+-RW Drive...however I am finding out quickly, even with 768mb of DDR my 1800+ is slow as anything when it comes to video encoding, especially when its an hour and a half of basketball games..It takes many many hours to encode..So if you could all help me in choosing a new mobo and processor, I'd really appreciate it
I've heard P4's are better for video encoding...so AMD or Intel, I'm not biased...
I'd like to stay sub $300 if possible:grinthumb
Current Specs:
Athlon XP 1800+
K7S5A Mobo
786mb PC2700(running at PC2100 speeds)
100GB WD SE HDD
Ati AIW Radeon 9600
SB Audigy Gamer
400w Antec PSU
TDK 8x DVD-+RW
XP Home
