Is this PSU powerful enough?

Hello, New member here.. I have just built a system composing of the following:
ZORRO 865W SCORPIO (SILVER)
K8T NEO FISR2 (BIOS 1.4)
AMD64 3200+
CREATIVE AUDIGY 2
HIGHTECH RADEON 9800 PRO
CORSAIR TWINX-XMS3700 (1GB)
SONY DVD-ROM
PIONEER DVR 106D
Is this PSU powerful enough to allow me to overclock my AMD64 3200+ to a 2.2GHz?
NOTE: This information is taken directly from the PSU label

If this PSU is not good enough could someone recommend a better one
is it worth installing XP64?
and is the VIA SATA controller better than the Promise?
Thanx ur help is really appreciated

34a on 12v wow ..plenty, mine doesn't have that many and it is a "600"
want to trade i have this nice old 300.....no, oh well i tried.
the via is faster, then the promise for the most part but your led hard drive light wont work.
havent messed with win 64 becuase there aren't any real 64bit programs yet.

  • Is MacBook Air powerful enough to run Creative Suite?

    I have just about about finished my 30 day Creative Cloud Trial and will sign up. However, I am also in teh process of choosing a new macbook to  run it on. I don't have a laptop at the moment I have been using my iMac for everything. What I want to know is, is the new MacBook Air which was  launched yesterday  powerful enough to run Adobe creative applications? A macBook Pro seems like the obvious choice but as this is my second computer and I wont use it as much as my iMac  I am mainly focusing on weight  and price - I wil mainly use it when travelling a couple of months each year but I still need to work effectively with Creative Cloud. Can you please advise?

    Yes, any MAC which is above 10.6.8 can run Creative Cloud.
    The tech specs for various CS 6 applicatons can be checked over here :  http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/tech-specs.html
    Hope this will help you decide better.!!

    What u guys think of Coolmax or Rosewill with about 30 Amps on the 12v... or just other less reputable names than OCZs n Fortrons...
    Any advice on these ones:
    Rosewill 550W Black Mirror Power Supply with 1 x 120mm UV Blue LED Fan, for $58
    COOLMAX 500W Taurus CX Series Silent Power Supply, 1 x 120mm fan, 3 Speed Fan Control Switch for $57
    I heard Rosewill is just a packager of CoolMax PSUs... Any1 had experience with COolmax and these MSI boards?
    IF you need to keep an eye on the doe I would say fortron tried and true. They tend to under estamte the power of thier suppies and have been of high quality for a long time.

  • Is an MBP powerful enough as an upgrade ?

    I currently have a Powermac G5 (dual 2Ghz) that I would like to pass on to my wife.
    Is the MBP powerful enough to be considered an upgrade to the G5 ?
    I primarily use it for Lightroom, Photoshop CS2, Final Cut Express HD, Xcode and WoW. I can accept Photoshop and Final Cut Express being slow due to emulation until next year when CS3 is released. All of the others are univeral binaries.
    I think one of my big issues is around disk capacity and performance... Is there any way to hook up a couple of large SATA disks to an MBP ?
    Does this seem like a feasible upgrade or would I have to look at the Mac Pro ?

    I wnt from a G4 tower to a Core Duo Macbook a few months ago & picked up a C2D 2.33 MBP last night. I can tell you a fair bit about real-world performance comparisons between these machines & a friends G5 dual where rendering in After Effects is the test.
    To start, I rendered a vector-heavy project on my old G4 867mhz tower, & it took 27 minutes. The same project on the first Macbook (single Duo) took 11 minutes, & then just over 5 minutes on the dual G5. This was enough to prompt me to start using the macbook for work as well as @ home surfing etc. that I had originally been considering it for. With a large external monitor & a stand it sets up nicely as a workstation.... After using it this way for I while, I realized having my computer & work files wherever I was was a HUGE benefit to my freelance animation business. I have set the macbook up & rendered with it in the trunk of my car while I went grocery shopping, how cool is that?
    ANYWAY, to get to the real point, having just picked up the MBP last night, one of the first things I did was load After Effects & re-render a project that I had built on the Macbook, & rendered there in 3 hrs. 40 minutes. On the MBP, it took 2 hrs 10 minutes, & probably puts it in line with the performance of that G5 now, I would speculate. When the universal Adobe apps come out? This thing will be PLENTY fast for my needs, & portable as well!

  • Is My Computer Powerful Enough?

    Hello, everyone. I have an "old" Dual 2 Gig G5 with 2 Gigs of RAM and PCI 33 slots (i.e. the older variation - NOT PCI X). This "old" and "dinosaur" moniker always, always makes me laugh, by the way, because although I got the computer a few years ago and it has since been lapped a few times over by the MacPros, Quads, and multi core machines that are out now, this machine that I have now is STILL a monster by my standards, and, although it's not HD capable (the PCI 33 slots are not powerful enough to accept an HD signal), I think it's still got some good fight left in it.
    Anyway, this is my question:
    I have Final Cut Studio in this machine. Is my computer powerful enough to process/work with a 4:2:2 color space at a 10 Bit depth via a Sony Digi Beta deck? I'm finishing up a DV feature that, I believe, was on a 4:1:1 color space with an 8 Bit depth, and this G5, of course, handled that with flying colors. However, I'm thinking about the 10 Bit 4:2:2 setup for a feature I'm planning on doing on 16mm this year and would like to see if this computer can handle that as well.
    Thank you in advance for the help, all.
    Javier Calderon

    What Sony converter box? Converts S-Video to firewire? Well then, you'll be capturing your digibeta as DV...decreasing the quality quite a bit. No, that box cannot capture uncompressed footage, but rather convert it to DV quality. And there would be no point working uncompressed because, well, you cannot output uncompressed with that converter box either. And what about deck control? Without a capture card like the AJA I/O (standard def card that connects via firewire400) you cannot accomplish what you are wanting to accomplish. The AJA I/O has SDI, Component and composite connections. And you can get the lesser expensive I/O LA if cost is a factor (when isn't it?)
    The Internal SATA drive will be fine for uncompressed SD (The second one, not the one with the OS on it), and if the other SATA drives are eSATA, then they will work. If they are firewire 400 drives, they will not.

  • Anyone using a Mac Mini and LE8-Is it powerful enough?

    I'm looking at buying a 2.0GHz Mini and LE8. I have a monitor and an external 500 GB FireWire hard drive. Just wondering if anyone is using a similar set-up to do large recording projects on. Is it powerful enough to have 20 to 30 audio tracks in a song?
    Any input would be greatly appreciated. TIA
    R

    Yes.
    I run a 2Mhz mini(or possibly 1,86MhZ) 2GbRam mini and LE 8.01.
    With Apogee Duet.
    It works ok. I occasionally get overload messages - particularly if I try to run a project immediately it opens (LE seems to take a while to load all tracks of a project) - have some projects with 20 tracks - as do the provided examples.
    It records fine - voice and guitar, and midi through USB port and midi adapter.
    Prior to Duet I use standard i/o ports for in/out audio.
    I do not run projects off the my external firewire drive - although the examples work fine in play back mode - I doubt if it would work for complex project re recording - possibly too much contention - and the Duet has my firewire port used.
    Freezing tracks helps, and a bity of patience as everything gets paged in.
    Your mileage may vary.
    Hope this helps

  • Processor powerful enough to run Premiere Pro

    I would like to purchase an HP Pavillion p6-2014 to run PP. I am unsure, however, if the processor is powerful enough: it uses the AMD A6-Series. Does anyone know if this will work? The tech specs are here http://www.bestbuy.com/site/HP+-+Pavilion+Desktop+/+AMD+A-Series+Processor+/+8GB+Memory+/+ 1TB+Hard+Drive/3641602.p?id=1218422886714&skuId=3641602&st=p6-2014&cp=1&lp=1

    Unfortunately, that system still falls below Adobe's minimum requirements for Premiere Pro CS5.x. The A6-3600 CPU is, if anything, slower than some of the Phenom II quad-core CPUs - and all of the Phenom IIs (and Fusions) lack full support for SSE 4.x instructions that CS5.x makes great use of. Even worse, that system has only one single hard drive for absolutely everything (which will make Premiere Pro not run properly, at least to anybody's satisfaction). You will need three or more fast internal hard drives for Premiere Pro to function satisfactorily. And that system does not have a discrete GPU at all, let alone an Nvidia GPU, so CS5.x will only run in MPE software-only mode. And its included 8GB of RAM is barely enough to run CS5.x adequately.
    In other words, that system is cheap - and performs exactly that way. You get what you pay for, in this particular case. A $400 system - desktop or laptop - is just not powerful enough for video editing unless all you're working with is standard-definition DV from tape (and that requires the purchase of a Firewire 400 card in addition to the system, in this particular case).

  • IS this PSU............

    Hi everyone
    I have recently purchased an MSI neo4 platinum SLI mobo with 3200+venice and OCZ rev2 platinum 2x512 DDR400 RAM with the sole purpose of getting a high OC with stock cooling.
    I purchased this PSU along with this setup: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=876412&CatId=1079
    this is a 500w PSU with 34A on the 12v rail, i have read many reviews that showed the PSU to be very good, the only probelm is that it has a 20pin ATX connector.
    So do u think the mobo will have any problems running with a 20pin instead of 24pin connector? would using an adapter make a difference?
    I havent recieved the parts yet, but i am getting worried that the 20pins would affect the OCing.
    thx

    If I were writing this review on sheer good looks the Ultra X-Connect would be a perfect 10, but we do have to factor in a few more things to add a bit of legitimacy to the whole thing.  So let's start with the power supplies power capabilities, looking at one rail is all that is necessary and that is +12 @ 34A. This is enough horse power to operate any of the modern boards along with a top of the line video card and a few little extra tossed in for fun.
    Now there is the stability factor, running two program for 30-minutes that both demanded 100% CPU utilization and the biggest swing in voltages was 0.17 volts. That is enough to convince me.
    If there is one small area I would like to see addressed that is the inclusion of either 24-pin cable or including the 20-in to 24-pin jumper and not forcing the customer to purchase one since this can make for some very bad PR when someone comes home and finds out their new computer won't work without the proper cabling.
    Otherwise...for that price...give it a go!!!

  • Is the 2.53Ghz New 13inch macbook pro powerful enough ?

    Is the 2.53Ghz New 13inch macbook pro powerful enough for basic photo/video editing ?
    Sincerely

    No problem paulcurtis. Typical story, if I'd waited a couple of weeks or a month, I could have gotten for 300 less a refurbed 2.53 with the discreet video card with 512 MB of vid ram. As it is, I have a discreet card with 256.
    All the MBP from late 2008 onward have a Nivdia 9400 Video chip on-board, meaning integrated with the motherboard. These cards share 256MB of ram with system ram. The extra discreet card is a Nivdia 9600 card. My model came with 256MB of its own dedicated ram. So when I'm on battery, I use the 9400 because it uses less electricity. When plugged in I use the 9600 with 256 as it provides significantly better performance. I believe that when Snowbird comes out, that apps written for it, especially creative apps, such as Photoshop, Final Cut Express, Aperture or Lightroom, or going to put more of the processing onto the video card. In that case the more ram on the video card the better.
    If I was buying today, I would get a refurbed 2.53 or 2.66 with the 512 MB version of the card. Now you can get those same models for the price I paid for my 2.4. they also come with more Ram 4GB and more onboard cache 6MB as opposed to 3. The cache is the fastest memory on the system and like ram, the more the merrier. Don't get me wrong, I love this Macbook and don't regret the purchase at all. In fact it's become my main computer now. but that's the way of computer world.
    The refurbed macs are a real deal, in my view. And if you are going to do any kind of Photoshop or use so-called "Pro" apps beyond iLife, the dedicated graphics card will be a plus. Likewise for playing games.
    Hope that helps.

  • Is Mac Air powerful enough...

    So I have been a pc user for forever and am seriously considering switching to mac. Ultimately, my goal is to use the computer for web surfing, word documents, and music/videos. Obviously most computers will be able to achieve this, however, I am more concerned with my music/video set-up. I have a drobo system that has a ton of movies files on it that I am trying to link up to play wirelessly on tv's in multiple rooms.(sorry if this is the wrong section to pose the question, but was uncertain where else it should be applied since it fits many different categories). Ideally, I would use an airport express with drobo attached via usb to transfer data to an apple tv. All of this would hopefully be managed by the mba. However, I wasn't sure if the MBA is powerful enough to be able to manage this type of system or if anyone has an easier way to be able to set something like this up?

    Ok - so first off - to play DiVX you will need to modify the OS that is on the Apple TV - It can't be discussed here on the forum - but google is your friend. Modifying the Apple TV will still leave all of the iTunes functionality of the device working - it will just allow Divx movies to play also.
    Basically - what you would do is attache the Drobo to the Airport - which would then be viewable as a drive on your MBA through t eh OSX Finder (just like a network drive attached in WIndows).
    Then - once you have your movies - you just send them wirelessly to the Drobo as you mentioned.
    You would need an FTP program - I prefer CyberDuck.
    Now - when you want to store divx movies on the apple tv you just attach the drobo as a drive to your MBA through finder (network it) - then FTP into the apple tv and then drag the movies from the drobo to the AppleTV and they transfer there wirelessly.
    The apple tv (after modification) would also have the ability to have a usb2 powered HDD/storage device attached to it (so - if you had a 2tb drive of all divx it could be plugged directly into the appletv) and you just navigate the appletv with the supplied remote or logitech harmony remote.
    what i do is hdd directly into appletv. then ftp directly from my MBA to Appletv.
    Hope this helps.

  • Will this PSU worK?

    Hi,
    I've just got a new MSI Geforce 4 Ti 4200 4x 128M grahics card and have installed it with a fresh installation of Windows XP_SP1.
    I haven't put it through the paces yet and played any games but before I do I would like to know if it's going to do my system any harm as I only have the following PSU:
    350W Enermax EG365P-VE which if I have followed the threads in this forum comes in a little low on it's combined +3.3/+5 V at 185W.
    Is this value close enough to the 200W that is reccomended that I will be OK? If I keep this PSU what harm will I do to my system?
    The rest of my system:
    Athlon XP 1700
    Epox EP-8K7A+
    256M DDR RAM
    2 x Hard Discs
    1 x Zip Drive
    1 x CD-RW
    1 x CD
    SBLive 5.1
    Haupage TV Card
    3Com Network Card
    Many thanks

    the 350 enermax can be frustrating as it will work in one set up but not another,its right on the power border line and like any thing one psu gives a bit more than another,trying its only way to tell
    you will not do any permenant damage

  • MBA Powerful Enough For External HDTV?

    Currently i plug my MBP into an external 40" HDTV, connect the power close the lid and watch HD films from iTunes, Plex etc.
    Would a high spec MBA also be able to achieve this task, or is the graphics card not powerful enough?
    Thanks for input...

    Yes, it's quite capable for your purposes.
