Intel e6700 and ASUS P5B

Might be worth posting at the adobe photoshop forums here - http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.ee6b366/

Also not sure what kind of plugin's the project is using, so I'll only be taking a stab in the dark. Might want to check the preferences in photoshop.

* see if you can allocate more memory
* put the cache drive on a fast performance drive
* defrag the drive
* if there's open GL features, might want to try switching them on and off
* Patch up to 9.0.2

I hope this helps Danica

You'll need to bring the ram multiplier to 2 for 1:1.

Before you do, it might be worth having a look at wusy's over clocking page - http://forumz.tomshardware.com/har [...] 97995.html

There's some great info that can help squeeze out more performance out of the machine. If you wish to run a safe setup, try a 3.2Ghz config. This can be done by setting the FSB to 320.

If you're still getting the same delays on the conroe system, I'm inclined to suspect the adobe photoshop isn't optimised yet for the hardware.

Good luck with it and let us know how you go

According to CPU-Z, my processor is running at 3550 Mhz and FSB 1420 Mhz. Memory 4/4/4/8 with FSBRAM 4:5. It is very stable. At 3600 Mhz when I tried my heavy Photoshop CS2 filter, sometimes it crashed. The only difference I see, is that when I turn the computer on, the power supply starts, and after one second turns it self of, then after 2 seconds, turn on again and starts to work. Is that normal? Is there any room to squeeze out something else? Again, thank you all.
