Hi,
does anyone fancy giving me their ten cents worth?
I am intending to build a rackmount pc to run my interactive
installations which I take out on the road. (www.boredbrand.com)
I am thinking of a dual processor system as I often run two or three
cpu intensive applications at the same time eg. realtime video
processing + audio looping with effects.
Most software I use probably does not have dual processor support
written into it. Will I still get the benefits if I run several apps at
once?
Also is there anything I need to know about cooling specific to using a
dual processor set up in a rackmount case?
Can anyone recommend a good board/processor combination. I will want to
use fairly good graphics card though I'm not really a gamer. I need at
least dual monitor support.
Also good audio capability though these days that is practically
standard.
Also important is alot of connectivity options.
What is my budget? 600 to 800 pounds (english) including the case.
Thanks Alot to anyone who fancies helping,
Gav
