I do video editing for live events and I need to be able to edit 10 cameras at once.

My system that I put together 2 years ago has a 3.4 ghz Ivy bridge i7, 32 gb ram and a 2gb video card. When I do multi camera edits in adobe premiere, I can only do 3 or 4 at a time fluidly, where they all play on one screen and i can just click on each screen while it's playing to cut to the other camera. When i try 5 or more, it doesn't really play. The audio plays fine but the video is just a frame every couple seconds.

I've tried editing on an internal WD black hard drive which is 7,200 rpm but i've found that i get the same results editing on a WD my book (which is a WD Green hard drive running at 5,400 rpm) over usb 3.0.

What do I need to upgrade to be able to play all 10 cameras at once? A top-tier video card? which one? Do i need a raid setup over esata? Is what I'm asking even possible?

Thanks!

Yes, you need upgrade the gpu to gtx 770 or gtx780 that depends on the budget, and using the 500GB SSD and the scratch disks to improve system performance too. Also you need to find more info like memory, cpu, etc. setting for tweaking adobe premiere from adobe. I guess no many people use the pc to edit 10 cameras at once, so I recommend you contact adobe too.
