Here is my Config for Vegas 9c Pro with Windows 7 Professional

Intel i7 860
Gigabyte UD5
4x2GB DDR3 OCZ Platinium
1x500GB SATA2 for System
3x1TB SATA2 for Clips
ESP1010 SoundCard (for 5.1 editing)
Monitor LCD: 2xSamsung F2380 (great PVA Matrix for HD editing)

In Vegas everyhing is going ok, even in Best Settings in 1080p. But in 99% time i'm using Preview Full for Work.
Sometimes Vegas add some veird blocks in transitions (i saw it even in first v9 relse) - help for this is to reopen project before rendering)

I purchased this PC especially for AVCCAM editing... and i'm Happy :)

My previous PC for DV & HDV edit - was unable to edit this heavy format... i had playing rate in preview 4-5FPS ;)

Sound similar to the computer I was looking at from dell. The XPS 8000. It's pretty cheap at bestbuy. But then I ran into this review:

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Dell+-+Studio+XPS+Desktop+with+Intel%26%23174%3B+Core%26%23153%3B+i7+Processor+-+Black/9532749.p?id=1218120178969&skuId=9532749&st=xps&cp=1&lp=1

specifically this part:

"The only issue that I have had with the computer is that I had to turn off hyper threading when I run Sony Vegas 9. Vegas hangs when rendering with hyper threading on. This is a software and not a computer issue."

It has me a bit concerned. I was planning on buying this computer and vegas 9 in the next few months, but maybe I should wait? I'm currently just using movie studio 6.0 but am concerned that it could run into this issue.
 
I have been using hyperthreading and no issues...also overpriced for that video card. I build computers for a living.. lol
 
Perrone Ford > I can figure your using windows 7 64bit in order to utilize 8 gb of ram right ?

But how did you manage an 8 core processor ? Is that 2 physical quad-core processors on one motherboard ?
