Hello everybody !
I recently started video editing but my processor is not powerful enough.
I want to update my hardware a little. My current config is :
- motherboard: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. P8H77-M PRO Rev X.0x
- processor : Intel Core i3 3220 @ 3.30 GHz
- RAM: 3*DDR3 - 4 Go - 1600 MHz / PC3-12800 (a 4th one is on the way)
- graphicboard: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti
My plan was to change the processor as it is the bottleneck when I export video after editing.
I search for compatibility here => http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/mb-ASUS/P8H77-M_PRO.html
and I though the i72600K would be great.
I checked the performances here => http://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i3-3220-vs-Intel-Core-i7-2600K/m272vs621
What is worrying me is that it says that the i7 2600K is compatible with DDR3 1066/1333. However mine is DDR3 1600 (running at 667MHz after checking). Would it work ? Do I have a better option ?
Can you guys advise your thought about what should I do ?
Thanks in advance
