Okay, I'm brand new to this community, but I trust your opinions!
I have several questions...
1. When is AMD planning on releasing their socket 939 chipset, and which architectures are going to be released at that time?
2. Do you know of any planned motherboards to be released along with that, which will be the socket 939 equivalent of the Asus SK8V or plain K8v?
3. I'm going to be doing a TON of hardcore gaming on it, high res, surround sound, etc etc etc.... But, my major in college is 3d animation. What type of system would you recommend for me? It's more important that my computer will render quickly and efficiently, not chop up when editing video, and allow Photoshop to function smoothly. I'll be using Cinema 4D, Brazil, 3ds Max, Photoshop, Flash Mx 2004 pro, Maya, Adobe Premier, and other programs of this sort. It is ESSENTIAL that I can run these programs flawlessly, at the highest speeds possible. BUT, I want to be able to game at the highest res, and have the smoothest frame rate in game that I can. What type of motherboard, processor, and ram would you recommend? Of course, take into account that I'm not going to be buying anything until socket 939 comes out (that's when I will have saved enough money.)
Thank you guys for your input! Later!
