Hardware requirements

[dregenthal]

Brandon-

I'm about to order a new Dell precision workstation but want to be certain that it will be a good choice for the pending release of Broadcast, Version 4.

I am planning to go with a Dual Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5060 3.20GHz, 2 X 2MB L2,1066. I am buying it with two Xeon processors and 4 gigs of ram -- I will be running a couple of Western Digital Raptor WD1500ADFD 150GB 10,000 RPM 16MB Cache Serial ATA150 drives and a decent 128mb dual dvi video adapter.

Do you think this will about cover it, or do you have any alternate suggestions?

That sounds like a great system.

The only thing you might, and that's a small might, not a big one, consider is a video adapter with 256MB, as 128MB is the minimum for any HD Xplode for EDIUS effects.
