First high performance PC buy..thoughts for CS6

I am looking to buy a Dell PC to run Production Premium. I will be editing HD DSLR footage of my wedding using CS6. I want a system that will handle this media but do not want to go overboard highend. Here is what I found so far.

OPTICAL DRIVE
16X CD/DVD burner (DVD+/-RW), write to CD/DVD
TOTAL $899.99
I am most concerned with the video card. I could upgrade to the cards below, but I know they still not be considered compatable for CUDA for Mercury Playback.
NVIDIA® GeForce® GT 640 1GB GDDR5 [add $50.00]
AMD Radeon™ HD 7770 2GB GDDR5 [add $150.00]
I am thinking about just choosing the cheapest card offered, save money, and buy highend card separately.
Am I on the right track with this system, or no where close?

Thanks for the wake up call. I went to the ADK site and talked with a rep and he put together a PC that he said is bare minium. The specs are below. Thoughts?

Matt59 yes you can install Photoshop Elements 13 separately. The evaluation process is software title specific.

I Want to Buy Adobe Photoshop CS6 for Mac - NOT Creative Cloud

I just bought a new iMac and I would like to buy Adobe Photoshop CS6 for Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10.2. I am NOT interested in the monthly subscription for Creative Cloud, so please don't even try and sell that to me. I was told by the place I bought my new iMac that Adobe would still sell me Photoshop CS6 if I contacted them. Since I was unable to find a phone number to call, I thought I would try my luck on this forum. Again, I was told that Adobe would send me a link or something like that where I can buy and download Photoshop CS6. Since my new iMac does NOT have a CD/DVD-ROM drive, I would only be able to download the software. I understand that the monthly subscription for Creative Cloud is the newest way of using Photoshop, but I am not interested in that at all. I would greatly appreciate any and all assistance with this matter. Thank you for your time and I anxiously await a response.
Respectfully,
Chris

From here you should be able to buy photoshop cs6:

I was going to buy monthly CC because I thought my CS6 license had expired and then it updated my creative suite 6 too. Do I now have 2 versions of everything? Do I need to have both?

It sounds like the Cloud managed to work its way into your system and take over the CS6 applications. If you are happy with CS6 and don't want to afford the Cloud your license is likely as good as ever. You just need to get the Cloud's claws out of your system.
See if the following helps get you there...
How do I prevent Creative Cloud from taking over my CS6 perpetual license?
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1584746
Aside: I was trying to update one of my CS6 applications thru the Application Manager last week and I decided afterwards I would try to update the manager since it seemed to get stuck. I clicked a prompt without reading closely, turned away and returned to find the Application Manager was replaced with the Cloud Manager... which I guess is the latest update for it. A similar thing happened on my previous machine and I was not happy with it because my other machine was not spec'd for the Cloud and it ended up resetting all my preferences. So this time I immediately uninstalled it and decided I can live without it. If I need any updates I'll look for them myself.

HT4972 Is there an update higher than 5.1.1 for first generation IPad ,if not why not?

You need to buy at least a second generation iPad. It doesn't need to be a brand new one.

Good/robust/high performance solution for calling Java from C

Hi,
I am looking for a good/robust/high performance solution for invoking a local java component from a C application in Windows.
About Java component:
- It has multiple methods that would be called very frequently from C application
- It will reside in local machine. This machine may not have access to internet/LAN.
My preference is to implement this java component as indepent running exe and have C application make outprocess calls. Is this possible?
Any help/suggestions on this are greatly appreciated
Thanks,
-Arun

I will stop replying to this conversation, unless it
remains professional and without getting personal.I suggest you read your replies again then since you were the one that strayed from the topic and referred to my competency.
>
Or conversely those that have been working with JNIfor close to 10 years >might have a different opinion
that someone who is promoting a commercial >product?
I cannot see anything wrong with sharing and letting
people know of potential solutions that might help to
solve their problems.Not a problem at all.
You however stated an absolute. I asked you to back up that absolute with something that was objective.
You then lashed out at me and questioned my competency.
>
So you are questioning my competence as well as myintent?
And not bothering to address the question at all.
I am guessing you haven't actually attempted tocompare JNI to on board >sockets but instead you are
just guessing.
Frankly, I don't see how a socket solution with
process switching overhead is going to work faster
than a direct method call, passing parameters over
the stack, the whole operation taking place
in-process.
And thus, as I thought, you haven't actually attempted to compare the two.
And in terms of competency I can only wonder if youare competent enough
to write the test frameworks that would demonstrateone or the other.
As said earlier, there is no need to get personal,
let's keep professional!
And as I said earlier I would suggest that you look to your own replies.
As mentioned, I do have enough experience for those
who need to interoperate with Java using JNI, and can
show how to do it in a safe and productive manner.
And as I have said for the third time now that has nothing to do with what I actually asked you.
The code that someone writes via JNI has much lessusage, and thus is much >more likely to have
problems. Even if someone is competent in creating
JNI >and C code.
Thus JNI Is less stable.
And by the way that includes the commercial productthat you are promoting >as well.
Expressing an opinion on a product just based on its
underlying technology without proper evaluation
doesn't sound like constructive criticism.
So you are claiming that your product is in fact more stable than the VM or at least as stable even though it has had far, far less usage?
The only thing that can be said about the product so
far, it that a product that is in production for some
years without any problems, has a certain level of
reliability and quality, whatever the underlying
technology might be, and that there is enough
competency with JNI to produce it and advice about
the technology.
True. But you were the one that brought up unrelated issues and then, as best as I can tell, thought to challenge my knowledge by pointing out how VMs "really" work.

So im trying to buy logic pro and just recently put enough money in gift cards on my account but every time i click buy app and go to billing info and then click ok it just shoots me to the first screen and did not charge for app how can i buy it ?

This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?

Looking for a high-performance and reliable NAS

Hi,
I have been searching for a high-performance and reliable SOHO NAS storage but I have seen very mixed and contradicting reviews for the products I have looked at so far. From QNAP to Synology to etc.
However I've not found a good review for Promise SOHO NAS devices such NSx700 and NSx600.
Is anybody here using them? If so how would you rate these devices?
Thanks in advance,

To buy in for delivery in Qatar, you should be starting from the Apple Qatar site:

Do you have an Apple-ID? if you do, then you should not have to enter your Address again, and may be able to sidestep the US Zip Code issue.

Unable to Launch Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 using High-Performance on AMD Radeon Graphic Card

I have been unable to launch Adobe Premiere Pro since installing it with the error message "Adobe Premiere Pro could not find any capable video play modules. Please update your video display drivers and start again"
Here are my specs:
Lenovo Ideapad U400
Windows 7 (64bit)
Intel i5 2.5 ghz processor
AMD Radeon 6470M graphics card
The only occasion during which I have successfully launched Premiere Pro was after reverting to the default graphics card on my computer and uninstalling AMD Radeon, otherwise, I have tried to change Premiere Pro to run on High-Performance on Catalyst Control Center to no avail, I do not wish to revert to the Standard Graphics Card as it slows down my computers performance one hell of a lot, neither do I wish to have to constantly uninstall and reinstall my AMD Radeon Graphics Card when I use Premiere Pro. Thank you for your time.

Update:
- with Intel (R) HD Graphics Card disabled, Catalyst Control Center reports that no AMD Graphic card is installed
- using Device Manager under Control Panel, AMD Radeon 6470M was verified to be up-to-date
- Premiere Pro works so long as I disable the Intel card before launch, however, I re-enable it upon startup to get rid of the 800x600 resolution
- AMD Mobility Radeon Driver Verification Tool is unable to verify and update my driver, refers me to lenovo to update it.
- My graphics card is up-to-date as verified by lenovo
- Intel (R) HD Graphics Card now up-to-date
- Display currently mainly using Intel (R) HD Graphics Card (Possibly why it caps resolution at 1024x768 when disabled) I'm not sure how to switch the main Graphics Card used, Catalyst Control Center doesn't seem to have the option.
- when disabled, computer reverts to vgasave instead of Radeon
- Disabling Radeon does nothing to existing display
- After updating my Intel card, Catalyst Control Center reported CCC was not supported by the current display adapter
- CCC worked after rolling back Intel card
From what I infer, I believe the problem to root from my intel card being the main card used, if there is anyway to switch my radeon card to the default instead of the Intel card, do tell me, I believe this may solve the problem, I apologise for troubling you guys, and I'm starting to feel that I shouldn't be troubling Adobe with my problem with AMD, this discussion is probably really out of place but I hope it will help out others with a similar problem.

Today. 06/05/2012.

Because of I believe and trust I studio ., then i paid 1, 890 Bht for it.
Now. I open your product Av component. And read manual instruction and follow step by step , Oh my God , I found that the adapter is 5v. .1 A. It cannot use with IPad 2 .
What can I do? Because. I read the receipt (bill) " no exchange or refund"
Can I Still Trust " I studio " at Siam Paragon or another branch in thailand?

Because of the assistance by Lisa ,iTunes Store Customer
I was going to visit the retail store where I made this purchase. Siam Paragon Bangkok Thailand.
I can change the new product that compatible for my IPad 2
Thank You .

Brightness unadjustable for "High Performance" in Switchable Graphics Card Technology

Hello,
I have just transitioned to Windows 7 Professional on my Thinkpad R400(2787-A31)
However, after installing the Thinkpad Switchable Graphics Card driver, i am unable to adjust my brightness if i am using the High Performance mode. My laptop comes with ATi Radeon 3470 and Intel GMA 4500MHD.
I have already installed most of the drivers, and after some testing i realised that it was the switchable graphics driver that cause this problem. Before installation of this driver, i was on the ATi Radeon all the while and i can change the brightness.
I hope some one can help me with this driver issue. My installation of the drivers was from the support page. All except the PCI Simple Communications Controller has their drivers.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Rosemars,
Thank you very much for solving the problem.
The key solution lies with the BIOS update. For people who cannot get the tool to work(mine keep giving an error message), there's an alternativie BIOS update utility at http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-70351
This is for R400 and T400s, for other models please select your model number at the Support page and find the utility.
Cheers & Thumb Up!

If I buy a photoshop CS6, will I in future have access to all new rawfiles for new cameramodels?

If I buy a photoshop CS6, will I in future have access to all new rawfiles for new cameramodels? Will it update automatically?

yes and no.
adobe periodically releases it dng converter which is a stand-alone app that always raw file conversion no matter the app version, http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=106&platform=Windows
each app/version can be updated automatically up to a certain point. currently cs6 accepts the latest cr update, 8.3.

I am about to buy my first Macbook Pro, should I wait for the possibility for a 2015 macbook, or just get the most recent model currently? (9-22-14)

No one knows if there will be a new model and if so, when that would be. However, there always will be something bigger, better, and newer around the corner, so you'd be waiting forever.
Buy it when you want or need it.
FWIW, here are the specs of the latest models (which happen to be mid 2014):

BizTalk Architecture using ESB for High Performance for 10000 requests per minute

Hi All,
I need to design an architecture for BizTalk ESB for high performance.
We are expecting 10000 requests per minute at peak time.
There is no much business logic but rather messaging scenarios.
Please suggest.
Regards,
vikingsss

Thanks Johns,
When I said Clone, I meant We will have 2 BizTalk Nodes, Application deployed on Both just to balance the Load using F5 Load balancer.
And Yes I have considered the SQL Clustering, but is my idea regarding this is correct if I say:
One Cluster 1 Node 1 Message Box will sit
On Cluster 2 Node 1 Other BizTalk DB's will sit
In case of failure on Cluster 1 Node 1(Message box) It will failover to Cluster 1 Node 2
In case of any other failure on Cluster 2 Node 1 (Other DB's) it will failover to Cluster 2 Node 2
Regards,
vikingss
