Hi I have got my New system whose spec is given below,
Processor- Intel® Xeon® Processor E5645 -2 NOS (Dual CPU),
CPU cooling- Intel Heat sink.
MotherBoard- Intel® Workstation Board S5520SC
Ram- 64GB Transcend 8*8GB ECC 1333Mhz Ram
GPU- ATI RADEON 7850 2GB
HDD- Kingston 240 GB SSD Drive
HDD- 2TB WD Caviar Green
LG DVD Combo Drive
Cabinet- Prime Source Server Chassis.
Now my question is,
How to properly configure my system, so that I can pull out its maximum performance. My main activities are 3d rendering and little video editing. And my main applications are Luxology MODO, 3ds Max, After effects and Blender. I would like to get the answers more in particular like following,
1) I would like to install Windows ultimate 64Bit. Should I need to do take care any special care while installing Win7 , as this is a server kind of system. What additional drivers I have to install after installing the Win7?
2) Will I benefit from setting up a RAID
3) If so, How to set up a simple RAID using the hardware listed above. (Any tutorial)?
4) Should I tweak any RAM setting, to get more performance?
overall any comments regarding overall performance boost of the system is appreciated.
I hope this community will give me the answers.
Thanks
