Premiere 6.5 is not benefiting from multiple processors? I had no idea about
that, thank a lot, you saved me a lot of bucks (EUROs' in my case ;) ).
Now, my system is taking aroun 70 minutes to render 3 minutes of video.
Truth to be told, those 3 minutes are stuffed with effects :).
I really appreciate your advice, could you tell me what's the optimal system
for me? Which processor (can you suggest me what Intel is best for me now)?
Which hard-disks (ATA,SATA,SCSI....)
The thing is that my MB is old and it supports only 512MB of RAM, therefore
I hsve to purchase a new computer!So, any suggestions are more than
welcome...
thanx again
peace...ned
