Does this PC have good specs for after effects?

I am debating wether to buy the new Apple Mac pro 6 core cpu or PC that is built that has these specs:
4th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-4770K 3.5GHz processor
16GB DDR3 1600MHz memory
1TB 7200 RPM SATA-III hard drive
120GB SATA-III solid state drive
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 3GB dedicated graphics card
12X Blu-ray combo drive
10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet
NZXT Phantom 410 gaming case
2 USB 3.0 (front), 4 USB 3.0 (rear), 4 USB 2.0
Front panel 12-in-1 card reader
120mm closed loop liquid cooling system
I am limited to these 2 options only.
I will be using the computer mainly for video editing and some 3d work(mainly title sequences using some 3d text and). Also i will be using AFter effects for special effects such as explosions and what not.
Im really confused and a newbie when it comes to specs needed on your comp to run after effects properly. Given the 2 options, New Apple mac pro or the PC with the specs listed above. What would be my best option? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I would suggest the X79 platform with the 4930K 6 Core CPU or better. If you get the Asrock Extreme 9 boards then the E5 V2 Xeons up to the 12 Core Xeons are available just like the nMPro. That becomes a major upgrade option later if your workflow changes. The workstation system would also push a 780GTX or 780TI card far better. I would suggest the 780Ti btw over the 780GTX. I would definitely suggest the PC over the nMPro for Adobe especially AE at this point unless you just require OSX.

  • Good website  for After Effects templates and stock footage in UK?

    Hello all,
    Can anyone recommend a good websites for downloading AE templates and stock footage in the UK please. I see plenty of gt American companies/ websites  but I  am reluctant to use templates and videos that are mastered in 29 frames and not 25 frames (UK).
    Many Thanks
    Joel Watt

    Session timeouts.... I really do think it's the server. AE doesn't care for specific network stuff, it's all just volumes/ drives to the program. To avoid these issues, you would have to shorten the refresh cycles on your server availability broadcasts or the "keep alive" cycles on the connection/ session settings themselves. I'd know how to do it on Win Server, but I have no clue with regards to XServe configuration. Still, certainly some simple console commands and a restart of the server software should be able to take care of the matter.

  • Display Hardware specs for After Effects

    Hi,
    For Mac Os the hardware specs are (and I'm not mentioning all the specs.... just a couple)
    5GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on a volume that uses a case-sensitive file system or on removable flash storage devices)
    Additional disk space for disk cache (10GB recommended)
    14400x900 display
    OpenGL 2.0–capable system
    I'm I crazy or should the display need minimal 1440x900? I mean ...14400 is a little bit to much isn't it?
    Thnx for your time and attention.

    Hi Temi1
    Please share the link on which you have notice this
    As i have checked system requirement page
    and it is showing the minimum requirement for display is 1440X900

  • My iPad makes a high low high tune every fifteen to twenty minutes, anyone know of this and have a fix for this annoying sound.

    My iPad makes a high low high tune every fifteen to twenty minutes, anyone know of this and have a fix for this annoying sound.

    I Also have this problem!!
    In my situation, the screen simply started exhibiting the same symptoms a few weeks ago (early February) for no apparent reason.  At first I thought the screen was dead, but discovered the heat solution by accident.  Now I turn it on and keep it from going to sleep until I go to bed.  Thank goodness the battery is still awesome on this thing.
    I bought it new and still has the original screen, I keep it at home (never below 62 degrees).  Coincidentally, this happened a day or two after the expiration of the warranty!!  Any help figuring this one out would be eternally appreciated.

  • HT5627 Does Mail (Mavericks) have any limitations for size, numer of mailboxes, folders, messages, etc.?

    Does Mail (Mavericks) have any limitations for size, numer of mailboxes, folders, messages, etc. ?

    Ah, so you're not considering running OS X Server here, you're running OS X client and asking about the mail client — looks like both the Apple bot that suggested that support article and I were confused.
    Mavericks Mail.app does have a few flakies that I've noticed but does work.  If Mail.app gets confused, restart it and see if it's less confused.  If the accounts get confused and start tossing the password prompt, remove and re-add the accounts.  When re-adding the accounts, don't use the Internet Accounts path, use the Mail > Preferences path.
    Do make a backup or two before the Mavericks upgrade, and most definitely configure and use Time Machine or some other backup tools after the upgrade.
    If you do decide to go to server (which is where I'd thought this question was originally headed), then you can download everything to your own local server — that'll take some add-on software to pull the mail from your ISP, or a set of mail-forwarding rules to push the mail, and some command-line tweaks to relay the mail out (as you're probably on a DHCP dynamic residential IP address), but that'll work, too.

    I believe you've posted this multiple times. Once is all that's needed. Also, please don't use all caps. Aside from the fact it means you're shouting it's also harder to read than mixed case.
    The error means a bad fan motor or the HDD has failed. In your case it's the latter.  You can try the following:
    Drive Preparation
    1.  Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    When formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Complete the OS X installation.

  • Why does this logo have jagged edges?

    I'm working on a new logo and before I get too far along I need to resolve this issue;  why does this shape have jagged edges when posted on the web?
      you can see it on-line auctionontario.ca
    Thx

    auctioneer,
    Obviously, you are using the transparency available for the GIF format.
    In addition, you should tick the Anti-Aliasing which is, unfortunately, hidden away like a hidden feature in the Image Size window within Save for Web.

  • ABOUT ADOBE MUSE Does this software have responsive design? Do I pay...

    Does this software have responsive design? Do I pay a fee to use the software and another fee to host the web site? How much does it cost to have ONE website edited in Muse and published by Adobe server?

    Hi Leonardo,
    Muse does not offer responsive design at this stage.
    You need to pay the subscription fees to be able to use the software. As far as the hosting fees in concerned, if you opt for subscription to creative cloud that you get 5 free sites hosted on business catalyst for free on the webBasics/webHostings plan. If you choose to opt for single app subscription for Muse then you get one free site.
    This free site offer is not available for the students and the teachers edition.

  • Does this computer have gps (my daughter's was just stolen), is there a way to remotely disable it?

    does this computer have gps (my daughter's was just stolen), is there a way to remotely disable it?

    First off, I'm sorry to hear about the theft of your daughter's computer.  The good news is that all Apple computers have their serial number in multiple places (depending on the model) and Apple maintains a list of every one of them.  Do you have the serial number?  If not, you can get it from the retailer you purchased it from.
    As far as GPS and disabling it, it is going to depend on several factors but the short answer is probably not.  I mean, Yes, there is a a way to detect location in most modern Mac's through a web browser using Geolocation (W3C API) but there is no onboard GPS; disabling the machine remotely would require you to have 'Back to my Mac' already set up on it from iCloud.  There might also be some third party tools available that I'm not aware of.
    Again, I'm really sorry to hear about the stolen computer.  I'll keep an eye on this thread to see if you have any other questions.
    BTW, what model and year is the computer that was stolen?
