Well it just got better and though it's out of the price range of many of VM's readers, the Z800 is now faster, more efficient power-wise, quieter and is not any more expensive than the original model!</p> <p>For the serious gearheads on the forums the new Z800 has shucked off the twin Nehalem Quadcores and put on a pair of Westmere Six Core 3.33 GHz processors (yes, I said '6' cores.) There's much more but I won't spoil the 'drool factor'. Take a look at the article at Studio Daily for a look at the new HPZ800.</p> <p><a href="http://www.studiodaily.com/main/12108.html">http://www.studiodaily.com/main/12108.html</a></p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/video-card-w100w-psu#post-49081 Sun, 12 Jul 2009 21:09:10 +0000 Kyalami 49081@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Hello everyone! I have a very old, but nonetheless great, HP Pavilion<br /> 6645c. It has an Intel Celeron 533MHz Mendocino processor, and the<br /> Intel 810 chipset. Although it was designed to run Windows 98, I've<br /> been able to put Windows 2000 on the machine with no problems at all.</p> <p> The computer has three PCI expansion slots, on an old TriGem Cognac<br /> motherboard. The graphics it uses are integrated, provided by the Intel<br /> 810 chipset. While the system is running great, the graphics really<br /> slow it down. I want to use this computer for basic IM/email needs -<br /> not expecting even good Flash support (i.e. Youtube, other online<br /> video), however, some graphics-heavy, yet non-video-centric sites (i.e.<br /> Tom's Hardware) run a quite slow.</p> <p> Basically, I want to ask if adding a simple PCI graphics card (I'm<br /> thinking of maybe a 32MB ATI RAGE) would work well despite the 100W<br /> power supply that comes with the machine. The PSU is also very<br /> limiting, but if the possibility of adding a simple graphics card is<br /> available and worth it, then I'd like to take advantage of it. I just<br /> don't want to install it and then start encounterin power/random<br /> shutdown problems, which I know are a pain and have the potential to<br /> mess up other components severely.</p> <p> The manual for the TriGem Cognac motherboard that is in the<br /> machine acknowledges PCI graphics cards (in one part, it states that<br /> the onboard graphics will automatically be disabled upon the insertion<br /> of a PCI video card) so I know that it was a possibility. But I'd like<br /> to know how far I can go with that 100W PSU.</p> <p> Thanks in advance for the help,</p> <p> Kyalami </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/applehp-or-dell-for-video-editing#post-37248 Sat, 07 Jun 2008 11:46:56 +0000 AJackson 37248@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>Looking for a good computer for video editing that costs no more than $2,500[including monitor].Here are the three that I have considered:Mac Pro,HP elite m9280 and Dell xps420.Among those, which is the best for video editing?Any other suggestions?</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/dvd-printer-dilemma#post-36980 Thu, 29 May 2008 16:08:50 +0000 Alukahn 36980@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> I'm looking to buy an inexpensive printer that prints onto DVD's.  I don't print a lot, so speed isn't as critical for me.  Quality should be good, but doesn't have to be perfect.  I'm thinking about the HP C5280, but I've seen wildly different reviews.  I know most recommend the Epsons, but I've had issues with my RX595 clogging and can't afford the ink (I'm actually waiting on a replacement from Epson).  I've read that the Pixma's are good, but given my experience with Epson am not crazy about internal printheads.  Does anyone have any long-term experience with HP or any suggestions as to another DVD capable printer?</p>
