Advice on the construction of a $2,000

A big thanks to everyone on this forum.  I've been out of the video game for a few years now (PPro CS2 widely used in recent years), and now I'm looking to get back into it.  Capture of return updated on all this has been a process humbling!  Has spent the last two days reading the stickied posts of harm and society and appreciate all their information.

Basic use will be film documentary style backcountry trips in remote sites, usually through backpacking, and all shooting will be done with a GH2.  Editing will almost all AVCHD, with eventual distribution if all goes well for the web, film festivals and blueray.

So after some research, I'm confident enough in the construction of a workable CS5 $2000 first machine.  I am asked some tips to see if there are a few improvements that can be made.  Here it is-

Round - WIN maelstrom SECC(0.8~1.0mm) Black ATX Full Tower Computer Case - $99.99

Processor - Intel Core i7 - 950 Bloomfield 3.06 GHz LGA 1366 130W - $294.99

RAM - G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 24 (6 x 4 GB) 240 - Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 - $399,98

Mobo - GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R LGA Motherboard - $199.99

Video - EVGA 012-P3-1472-AR GeForce GTX 470 (Fermi) - $249.99

Food - CMPSU-850HX 850W ATX12V 2.3 / EPS12V 2.91 80 MORE SILVER - $169.99

Hard - Crucial RealSSD C300 - $134.99 - primary transmission - OS operating system, and programs

Readers of media - (4) Seagate Barracuda 7200 1 TB 7200 tr / MIN SATA 3.0 Gb/s 3.5 "-drive configured in raid 0 2 discs, with a back up the car and export."

Optical drive - black pioneer Blu - ray burner BDR-206BKS SATA - $129.99

Processor cooling - COOLER MASTER Intel Core i7 compatible Hyper N 520 RR-920-N520-GP 92 mm CPU cooler sleeve - $34.99

Monitor - Asus VE248H black 24 "Full HD - $219.99

In total, sneaks into about $ 2,000 worth of costs from NewEgg.

Couple of immediate concerns I have:

(1) G.Skill is a mark of good memory?  I tried to do some research and it seems that the more profitable.


(2) sufficient size software SSD drive?  64 gb. should only run production suite CS5 and a few other small programs. I can spend at 128, but looking to reduce their costs, if any.

(3) raid configuration - I know people from the Board of Directors to advocate a controller.  There is no budget for now however.  I would like to make a raid 0 onboard and have an additional backup, as a drive to export.  By reading the suggestions of evil on the storage, as is feasible - 1 SSD for the OS and software, 2 in raid0 config for the media, for raid 1 drive backup media and one for export to.  What is a reasonable strategy?


(4) I know that the video monitor is not terrible, but it fits the budget.  Other recommendations in the same price range?

Thanks for your help!

Dan,

An alternative monitor is Samsung F2380, which is the more affordable and much better than the screens TN PVA screen.

64 GB of SSD is more than enough for the programs and the OS.

G.Skill Ripjaws are very good sticks.

Use either 2 separate raid0 arrays or an array of 2 discs raid0 and two separate drives. It depends on a little of your workflow and backup capabilities, what to choose. Take a look at the generic Guide... on the overview tab.

  • Now for the construction of three

    Following the advice here, I connected the 2 buildings with WAP54G in Bridge mode.

    Building 1 has Internet connection, building 2 is the middle.

    For the construction of 3 i:

    1 move the bridge of 2 to 3?

    2. use another WAP54G or a WRT54G as a Repeater?

    There has been some comments about WAP54G giving probems.

    Would be as Repeater Wi - Fi for building 2, or it is wired only?

    Thank you.

    Simply repeat what you did with the first bridge. Yes, that means 4 APs. You could probably do with just one more and add the third access point at the nearest access point bridge. But I guess it depends on the distance and the antennas used.

  • Question about the construction of cube / query performance (11.2.0.3)

    Hi, I have a stupid question on the performance of cube generation. By choosing the precalc %, is linear (or nearly linear) construction time to that? for example if you select 10% going to be 3 times faster than the selection of 30%? Also, is it fair to assume that if only 10% of the values are precalculated, an average end-user queries have to hit 3 times more data and therefore be about 3 times slower?

    Sorry, this on a virtual computer on your laptop, so test different configs build takes forever (I still have a load of cube really complete). Guess I should not be trying a cube Sun 15 on a virtual computer on your laptop, but trying to sell a DBA on the fact that she could improve the performance of our mini - DW.

    Thank you

    Aggregation based on costs (aka "Pre-computes percent") was introduced in 11.1 as a simpler alternative based on the level of aggregation. Product management dream was a linear parameter, but the complexity is quickly apparent. Which could measure the linearity against? The generation time? Time of the query? Total size of the disk? The result the balances of all of these factors, but is linear against any of them. Fortunately, behavior level percentage precompute was fairly consistent between cubes and patterns in our experience, so I can give you a rough characterization. But keep in mind that this is a guide only - you have to experience on your own scheme and a system to see what works for you. In particular, you must balance your own requirements on construction time, time of the request and the disk size.

    * 0% *-this means no precomputation at all, so all data access will be dynamic. This is the recommended setting for the top of the page partition of a cube. If, for any reason, you want to use for the scores of leaves as well, then I advise you pass a cube uncompressed.

    * 1% *-he pre-computes the smallest part of the cube that is allowed by the algorithm and would take certainly greater than 1% of the time taken by an accumulation of 100%. For partitions of leaves, it is usually best to increase the amount because you'll get much better query response time for not much more profitable in terms of disc size and the generation time. It may be a good level for the top of the page partition of a cube, but should be used with caution because the top of the page scores are often too big to pre-computes.

    * 2%-19% *-these levels does not seem to be a lot of benefits since the amount of time and the total size of the disk is almost identical to a construction of 20%, but queries are slower.

    * 20%-50% *-this range is probably the best compromise in terms of construction compared to the time of the query. The default value of the AWM is 35%, which is a good starting point. Lower it to 20% if you want a faster version and get up to 50% if you want to replace the faster queries. The setting is close to linear in this interval than outside it.

    * 51%-99% *-you should probably avoid these levels, although I've seen 60% used in practice. The reason is that while the size of the cube and the length of the construction increase rapidly, the queries do not receive proportionally faster. Indeed, you may find that queries are slower because the code spends more time swapping in the pages of the disc.

    * 100% *-this will be pre-computes all (non-NULL) cells in the cube. It may be a surprise after my advice about 51%-99%, but 100% is a reasonable level to choose. This is because the code is much simpler when you know that everything is precalculated and then stored in the disk pages.

  • How to use an external webcam instead of the construction in the Sat A215-4757

    I would like to connect a webcam Genius instead of building behind closed doors to get better angles to capture. Could intall gentle Genius, but images still come from the construction in camera. Tried to disable built in camera but activate camera Genius, but no image has been shown.

    Please any help, thanks.

    Edgardo, buenos aires

    Hello

    What applications do you use to use the other external webcam?
    Generally, if more then one device has been installed, you must choose and activate the right one.
    The same phenomenon occurs if multiple printers are installed on the OS. You must first enable one and assign it as the default value.

    Check if you can mark your external webcam installed as default webcam.

  • during the construction file name collision

    LabVIEW 2011.

    I have a build specification where I copy a file in the target directory.  The name of the folder is "always included."

    The folder contains the subfolders and the subfolders of the data files.  The data files in subfolders all carry the same name, if for example we

    High back (always included)

    Subfolders one, two, three

    and in each subfolder, we have a data file named Data

    When I build I get the following message: "Labview has prevented a file name collision during the build. Names of duplicate files can be copied to the same destination... "and it references the three data files named Data.

    Well, that's all just crazy.  They are NOT copied to the same destination.  Generation does not understand a simple tree structure?

    David

    Thank you very much.  I was able to copy the whole hierarchical file structure by defining source file settings and destinations.

    You also wrote: "If you plan build a Setup program, why are you trying to do this in the EXE version?

    I didn't realize that this can be specified during the construction of the installer.

    Thank you.

  • Other Include directories in the construction or the installer

    The engineer so I have to write this program hates digging around for files if the software specification call for several configuration files outside the root directory.

    C:/program name/System_Config

    C:/program name/Instrument_Config

    C:/program name/Test_Scripts

    How can I include these files in a generation or the installer so that they are created during installation and placed in the appropriate default directories of config files?

    Look in the category Destinations in the dialog box to create a new installer.  The construction specifications for an installer by default puts the executables in [Program Files] \YourProjectName, where [Program Files] is a token that specifies what the Program files for the PC, you are installing.  There are many other chips for other paths such as Windows, office...

    I would first try to put in a new folder under the direction of [Volume Windows] tree.  (There is a new icon of folder at the bottom of the tree).  I'm leaving the Windows volume is going to be at the root of any drive you have installed Windows on, which should be C:\

    You could also add a new directory such as c:\YourProjectName which would put an absolute path for the installation of the executable at.

  • Need some advice on the best way to do specialized source distribution

    I need to give a customer a labview block, they can use our material in their own labview code that will read the (encrypted) data net senor off the coast and the flow of data in a form usable output.  I built a vi that can be used in a loop, a bit similar to the block of canned labview data acquisition that can be used to acquire data from products OR.

    There are many sophisticated (and secret) algorithms going on in the background which make sense data and translate them into a usable data table, but also configure the hardware itself. Accordingly the only final vi I prepared to distribute the client makes use of Subvi about 20. Almost none of these subvis could be ideally be reconverted in plain code in main vi, nor what I want to do this.

    The rules of the game is the following: I want to give him the block I created to use its own code, without him to see what's happening inside the vi.  I can deny him access to the block diagram/s, no problem, but I don't want to give him access to the subvis, to use, or even to know their names - preference they would be hidden or otherwise pre-compiled. Preferably I would just give him the main block only, perhaps with some support files that would be entirely opaque to him.

    Looking for advice on the best way to go. There is an elegant solution to this problem? For example, it would be better to compile the block as a .dll file, and then write a wrapper vi any?

    Have you thought of creating a packed library? You can also password protect your code. You can delete the distributed code block diagrams. You can use a combination of the above as well.

  • The good examples of the construction and analysis of the data in bytes?

    Hi all

    Very soon, I'll have to find a way to build messages to bytes to send to a serial port and a serial port to receive and review to the basis of events out of...

    However, before I delve into the complexities of the serial port communication and VISA, etc... I would just like to see some examples of working mainly with data of bytes.

    I found how to get a digital constant the byte value... the binary representations signed and unsigned, etc..

    However, if I could find a simple example or tutorial just to see how to assemble the byte-code... and how to analyze it, it would prove invaluable for me to study.  I've never really worked at the byte level / binary front... and a few examples with LV would be very practical.

    Anyone know of any good links out there something like this?

    I'll eventually be sending 5 bytes out I need to build... and will receive 9 bytes in, each of which I need to parse out and respond...

    Links or information GREATLY appreciated.  I'm pretty decent analysis of the chains, real expressions, etc... but never worked with the construction and analysis of the data in bytes.

    Thank you in advance,

    Cayenne

    If you are comfortable with binary data, you can use the Boolean charts. Look at the number of table Boolean and array Boolean functions numbers. Instead of masking with an AND, you can easy to use array index to check a bit particular.

  • Problem with the construction of a distribution (build stuck at \temp\template.ini)

    I am trying to build a distribution. I installed in my laptop and a PC of LabWindows/CVI lab. The distribution is built using the PC lab. The construction process is rather blocked at \temp\template.ini when I try to use my laptop. The only way to put an end to the construction then is to kill the process via the Task Manager (even the version 'Cancel' gets stuck then and I have to kill him via the Task Manager).

    In computers, I have 9.0 LabWindows and they both generate generation log attached.

    When I check the dependencies module I get the following message "all the required merge modules" found + a green light.

  • Do a clean install of Windows Vista 32 8.1; advice on the new partition formats.

    Hi, I'm going to do my clean install of Windows Vista 32 8.1 today.

    Need advice on the size for my new partition (s).

    Currently defined as the partitions:

    Total: free:

    OS (c                          99.7G          11.9G

    Data (D G 111, 14.5 G)

    HP_Recovery (E 12.0 G 1.97 G)

    I am running:

    Laptop HP Pavilion DV9700 Entertainment

    32 Vista Home Premium, SP1

    Basically I want a suitable partition for the new Windows OS 8.1 (more room for restore points).

    And the rest of the data area, I guess, as if I had originally.

    Does anyone have any other ideas, because I start from scratch.

    Hi davisj-oaktree.

    To remove the Vista partition, I included the following two links http://bit.ly/1dWZLLn, and http://cnet.co/1dWZQii. Please check the information on each of these websites.

  • Guard application launch at the start of the appliance, also need advice for the implementation of network methods

    Hi all

    I'm new to the development of Blackberry and I'm writing a relatively simple application to run on 7.1.

    So far the development was interesting, I managed to create my user interface using resources online (mainly this forum), but today I tried to implement some of the network classes that I need and now I just met constant problems.

    I use Eclipse SDK 3.7.2 (the one that comes with the plugin RIM)

    First question:

    I'm not sure what I changed, but today I noticed that whenever I start the Simulator (by sim 9360) my application is started during the initial startup process. I don't think he did this before, but to be honest, I wasn't paying much attention. I think it starts at the start of the device is because I put a breakpoint in the constructor for my class from the main screen, which is hit before the Simulator happens even to the point where it is ready for user interaction. In addition, once it is ready, if I press the BB button, I see my registered application.

    I don't have it set to automatic start in .xml descriptior enforcement.

    I started this application on the HelloBlackBerry sample, here is my main method for the entry of the application:

    public static void main( String[] args ) {
            appSettings = AppSettings.fetch();
            // Create a new instance of the application and make the currently
            // running thread the application's event dispatch thread.
            HelloBlackBerry theApp = new HelloBlackBerry();
            theApp.enterEventDispatcher();
            //openConnection();
    
        }
    
    
    

    As far as I know, this is the only entry point for the application.

    More code

        public HelloBlackBerry() {
            // Push a screen onto the UI stack for rendering.
            mainScreen = new ScreenHelloBlackBerry();
            pushScreen( mainScreen );
        }
    

    Here is the method of. my class AppSettings fetch()

        // Retrieves a copy of the effective properties set from storage.
        public static AppSettings fetch()
        {
            AppSettings savedSettings = (AppSettings) _store.getContents();
            return new AppSettings(savedSettings);
        }
    

    Some of this code that I wrote myself, the persistence store cause the launch of my car?

    I tried to reset the Simulator to the factory settings, no change.

    All applications initialized during the startup of the device and then closed shortly after?

    Part 2: Need advice for the implementation of functions of network in the application

    I need to implement some methods that will retrieve data from a web service, and I also need to send data to this service. What I've read, the ConnectionFactory is the way to go. I want my application to make a request when the application is open and can check on a set interval. I didn't know exactly how to go about adding another thread for networking, I understand that network connections should not be created on the thread main event, so I tried to do this:

    The constructor of my class that implements screen (ScreenHelloBlackBerry), I use the following to create a modal dialog box to prompt the user for a username, I also try networking wire in the same segment of spawning:

            public ScreenHelloBlackBerry(){...initialize fields and managers, add it all together...then near the end
    
    //This will open the confirm dialog when the application is launched
            UiApplication.getUiApplication().invokeLater(new Runnable() {
                  public void run() {
                      openConfirmDialog();
                    //start connection - Possibly broken
                      ConnectionThread ct = new ConnectionThread();
                      ct.start();
                  }
            });
    

    I don't know if it's somehow OK to do, but it seems to work for what I need. I want a user who launches the application at the prompt, and if a user switch applications, when they come back they wondered again (unless they close the app and reopen it).

    Here is my ConnectionThread:

    public class ConnectionThread extends Thread
    {
    
        public void run()
        {
    
              ConnectionFactory connFact = new ConnectionFactory();
              ConnectionDescriptor connDesc;
              connDesc = connFact.getConnection("http://www.google.com");
              if (connDesc != null)
              {
                  HttpConnection httpConn;
                  httpConn = (HttpConnection)connDesc.getConnection();
                  try
                  {
                      final int iResponseCode = httpConn.getResponseCode();
                      UiApplication.getUiApplication().invokeLater(new Runnable()
                      {
                          public void run()
                          {
                              Dialog.alert("Response code: " +
                                            Integer.toString(iResponseCode));
    
                          }
                       });
                      httpConn.close();
    
                   }
                   catch (IOException e)
                   {
                     System.err.println("Caught IOException: "
                          + e.getMessage());
                   }
              }
        }
    }
    

    At the moment it has basically unmodified code from a sample that I found, I'll be retooling to meet my needs whenever I can make it work. I HAD this work to the point where, after the closed user confirm this dialog, a few moments later a an alert dialog appears with the 302 response code. I don't know what changed, but now it doesn't work at all, and if I try to scroll with the debugger, I can't past the httpCon.getResponseCode (). I've seen some mistakes earlier on "no record of service was set up", and I also had once a timeout exception.

    I'm sure I'm doing this wrong, but at the same time as I said WAS working, and now it is not. If someone has done this far, thank you very much for your time and advice are much appreciated.

    Also, should I try to start the thread of the network of the UIApplication class instead of the screen? There is currently very little happening in the class that extends UIApplication, do I spend most of my business logic out of the class of the screen and in the UIApplication class?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi all

    Just to conclude this topic for those who are interested, I found an excellent guide to the implementation of networks in applications of BB, click here for a link.

    About my application being started at the start of the simulator of the device, I found that on a device real this behavior is not complied with, and in addition, the behaviour seems to have stopped after uninstallation and reinstallation of my Simulator.
