Anyway, Hyperthreading is not just disabled on the Core architecture. Hyperthreading was just a way for overcome problems caused by the Netburst architecture's extremely long pipeline. As I understand it, something like Hyperthreading would not really help on the Core architecture, which is a direct descendant of the Pentium-M and thus based on the Pentium III architecture rather than Netburst.

Re: [CinCVS] ideal machine = ?
The machine I just put together doesn't quite have the CPU (due mostly to cost) but the rest works out just fine: Dual nVidia 7900 GS cards and 4 monitors (Optiquest V95 for color fidelity, LG Flatron Wide for aspect, and 2 NEC AccuSync LCD71VMs for extra desktop space 4 Gigs RAM Intel Core Dual 2.4GHz (I'll upgrade to the faster chip when they turn on hyperthreading and the price comes down a bit) Asus P5N32-SLI mother board 4 x 300Gig Seagate SATA striped for working space 2 x 300Gig Seagate IDE RAID1 for the OS Plus 7 machines in the basement set up as major disk storage (18TBytes) and as a render farm. The only problem is that the machines in the basement were all purchased as disk storage only, and most have Celerons in them :( Gigabit E throughout. richard On Sat, 2007-01-20 at 22:06 +0100, peter wrote: > hello all, > > I am preparing a workshop open source video + > for this I want to built a machine optimised for best performance of > cinelerra. > + am looking for what parts to buy. > Being a hardware nono myself, could you give me some advise? > > Who has experience with the configuration on the heroine website? > > Double Dual Core Opteron > 4 Gig RAM > 500 GB SATA drive > Tyan motherboard > Gigabit ethernet > > Does anybody use this, what are your experiences > - any alternatives for the motherboard? > - I work wit an ATI Radeon 9200 graphics card, it works but has caused > problems in the past, which card do you prefer? > > What 64 bit distribution would you recommend? > > > thanks > peter > > http://www.constant.irisnet.be/vaa/ > > > > > > > > ___ > Cinelerra mailing list > Cinelerra@skolelinux.no > https://init.linpro.no/mailman/skolelinux.no/listinfo/cinelerra -- - Richard C.

Mine is a dual-core AMD64 4600+X2 with 3Gb RAM, and it's perfect for editing DV material. Some people here probably use far more powerful computers, but anyway, we can't really tell you our opinion, since all depends of what you'll do with Cinelerra. Will you edit HDV or DV? > - any alternatives for the motherboard? > - I work wit an ATI Radeon 9200 graphics card, it works but has caused > problems in the past, which card do you prefer? Definitely an Nvidia one. An NVidia 7600GS works fine, as stated here: http://cvs.cinelerra.org/docs/wiki/doku.php?id=english_manual:cinelerra_cv_en_2#hardware_requirements > What 64 bit distribution would you recommend? I'm not quite sure the distribution would make a big difference anyway...
