Hi guys:
I am buying a computer with intel i5 2400 CPU. I am wondering which motherboard would you recommend? and also which brand is better? ASUS or GIGAbyte? and which chipset would you go for?
It's mainly for multimedia use -
1. audio editing (making music album using m-box and pro-tool 8)
2. photoshops
3. trasfer video files to mpeg etc from my hd video camera
4. video editing my recordings on my hd video camera
5. watching movies online
6. using it as a "server" in the househould where the other 4 computers in the house can communicate to and share files etc.
7. other usual use - home office, internet etc
8. I play games on ps3 not on computer
p.s i would like to have hdmi and dvi; optical/good audio output?
and could you also help explain is it worth buying usb3 now?
my budget is around $100 - $200 but anything is ok as long as it's suitable for my needs.
Thanks heaps for your help!!!
