I have an i7 920 and 6 gigs of ddr3 at present.

I'm editing a concert: 4 cameras continues video on 4 video tracks, HD, Wide Screen, P2 files.
Thoughts?

Studio North Films Sep 14, 2010 8:25 AM (in response to Studio North Films)I would remove the old sticks and buy a hex kit of 6x sticks.

7. Re: DDR 3 2000MHZ
timthompsonguitar Sep 14, 2010 8:32 AM (in response to Studio North Films)Based on the project I am working on, you think that 6 gigs is not enough?
Playback of program monitor is jitteryin full screen but ok in the small version. Will memory help this?
Also, you mentioned a hex kit, sorry if I sound like a moron, you mean a kit with 6 sticks of the same memory?
Thanks

8. Re: DDR 3 2000MHZ
Studio North Films Sep 14, 2010 8:36 AM (in response to timthompsonguitar)min I would go for is 12gb 1600mhz ram,
Hex kit is a kit of the same memory made in the same batch,

ECBowen Sep 14, 2010 8:38 AM (in response to timthompsonguitar)If you get the same model ram and hope that the 2 production runs are compatible then you can just get 3 more sticks. Otherwise North is right and getting a Hex kit will be the least problematic. It will also give you a chance to go with faster DDR3 if your board supports it. The ram will definitely help with playback. Remember in CS5, your system Ram becomes the central information hub for almost of the data traffic between devices.

11. Re: DDR 3 2000MHZ
ECBowen Sep 14, 2010 8:48 AM (in response to timthompsonguitar)Depends if you use AE or not and whether you will be upgrading to CS5 soon.

12. Re: DDR 3 2000MHZ
timthompsonguitar Sep 14, 2010 8:55 AM (in response to ECBowen)Now you've thrown me a curve ball. I'm not that far into this project that I can't start over. Is CS5 going to make my life easier. I use AE a little but I don't know the program that well and I am mainly editing my own concert video. It is 4 cameras of continuous video and I am editing in multi-camera mode. I edit videos regularly but they are mostly my own stuff for promotion. This project I"m currently working on is a big one. 18 songs times 2. One show without and audience and one show with an audience. Each show is 90 minutes. I recorded separate audio which I will be importing. Thoughts?

13. Re: DDR 3 2000MHZ
ECBowen Sep 14, 2010 9:01 AM (in response to timthompsonguitar)A project that big will be take allot more time on CS4 and may require some workflow changes. I would definitely make the upgrade now if this project is time sensitive or your time is limited at all on it. CS5's 64 bit memory allocation alone would make a big difference with this type of project in HD without taking the MPE into account. So yes, I would suggest the upgrade.
