I had promised to report back on the difference between my old and new PC. Well, the new PC has arrived and here are the results.  So I have created some small identical projects on both PC for a quick speed comparison. No surprise that the new 3900X with 32GB RAM@3600MhZ declassifies my 2.8 MHz I7 930 with only 6 GB RAM @ ...

No, no additional fans indeed. I'll check out why they did not recommend that. I overlooked it myself in the final quote I got. No particular reason for Nvidia, just based on the builder's advice. They thought the GTX1660 would perform overall slighty better than the 590 and would produce less heat (so they have been thinking of the heat ...

Hi Tony, I have made the decision, dug deep into my wallet and order the following rig: CPU:AMD Ryzen 3900X GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1660 Super Gaming OC Mem: Kingston HyperX Fury 32 GB @ 3600MHz Mobo: Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite Drives: 500 GB + 1 TB Samsung 860 EVO SSD + 4 TB Seagate Ironwolf HDD Power supply: Corsair RM750 Gold Case: ...

True, I only use my C-drive for the OS and to install programs on. Everything else is stored on the HDD. Long term storage and large downloads are stored on my NAS. 

I think I have, with your help, pretty much figured it out now, although I haven't decided on the case yet (good looks vs money...).

I have stored my footage (AVI-files) from the DV-tape on my 4-bay NAS. When I start editing I copy the specific footage on my D-drive (SSD).PS itself is installed on my C-drive (also SSD), which is also my scratch disk. I have been wondering whether it would be better to  have C for OS, D for PS a mechanical HDD for the footage and another ...

Always nice to receive compliments from a native English speaker. ��  Up to now I have a lot of more than 10 years old SD material I have to go through, dating from the time my kids where young. Currently I am shooting HD and occasionally 4K. I used to make lots of videos out of school camp footage for an audience of 12 year old kids. So ...

 Rechecked: yep, selecting the 590 instead of 580 only adds €5,00 to the configuration price. I have fixed the link in the earlier post now. Could be that Edius does NOT support AMD graphics. Good to read that PS23 does support AMD acceleration, so I will upgrade for sure then. My English already gave away that I'm Dutch I ...

They do offer the 580 as well, this would save €5 only.They came up with the X62, so I guess they know where they plan to build it ;)NL stands for Netherlands, that's where I live. PS20 vs P23: I currently have PS20 Ultimate. Good to read that PS23 offerst AMD graphics card support. I came across a German comparison of Edius editing software ...

The configuration so far would consist of: - Fractal Design Meshify C - Gigabyte Aorus Elite - AMD RYZEN 9 3900X - 3,8GHz - Corsair Vengeance 32GB (3200Mhz) - 1 x 500 GB SSD Crucial MX500 - 1 x 1 TB SSD Crucial MX500 - 4 TB HDD - AMD RADEON RX 590 8GB - NZXT Kraken X62 - Corsair VS650 - Windows 10 Home NL 64 bit and would be ...
