Laptop with Quad Core for early holiday gift-

You want to make me a gift holiday at the beginning and has been thought to splurge on a laptop with the Intel Core 2 Quad Core Extreme QX9300 with 8 + GB of RAM I was wondering if anyone has used a similar configuration to the ESX ruin under my computer? Thanks in advance-

Hello

I have a Dual Core T9500 w/8GBs of memory... HP 8710w model... However, the HP 8730w is now out and I'm aiming for that. Quad cores running too hot and too burn battery to be of great use in a laptop at the moment. I hope that this will change.

Best regards

  • Dual-Core or Quad core for 3 Mainstage

    Hello

    I'd go with the quad core. MS will use as many hearts as you want. Simply enter the number in the Advanced preferences Audio settings. You can use all of them, although I've seen a few comments about letting a carrot or two open for the operating system and other processes on the computer. With the i7, there are also 4 virtual cores, so you will see 8 in preferences. I usually give 7 MS and leave an opening for the OS, but I didn't a lot of testing with this, while others may have more information about what I do.

    Definitely go with 16 GB of ram. If you start using instruments of large sample, you will need. You can use aliases to manage memory more efficiently, but it is nice to have enough ram so that you do not have to worry not so much stuff like that. I use 5 Kontakt and EXS a bit and I would certainly hurt if I had only 8GB. Generally, I think that the required memory tend to go up, in order to have more ram will prolong the life of your computer. Unfortunately (and incredibly!) you can't add ram later, because I believe that the ram is soldered to the motherboard.

    I am also a big fan of getting the biggest SSD (or all what they call the last storage solid-state on recent Macs) you can afford. You cannot replace this component on the newer models of MBP either, then you will be stuck with what you buy. Applications, sample libraries, plug-ins, etc, that all seem to grow in size over time and it's not funny if you run out of room.

    Good luck!

    Nope.  Intel chips use different chipsets and different the SB of AMD processor sockets.  If your computer is equipped with an AMD processor you must upgrade with an AMD processor.

  • 2nd hard drive install on pavilion dv7-3060us 17.3 inches with Quad core processor

    Pavilion dv7-3060us computer has a 2nd hard drive Bay.  On 2 flags of 17.3 inches previous, I installed a 2nd HDD.  This quad core Pavilion is much thinner than the previous pavilions;  the underside of the computer has also a centre piece in the form of "T" in the Panel without screw - is a pop on the access panel or the entire bottom panel needs to be removed through the perimeter screws?  Still trying to find a manual showing this particular case - no luck so far.  The downloaded HP

    Manual for the previous dv-7 is for the case of style like unless I missed something.

    Install an SSD soon - would like to have all the "stuff" to install a 2nd drive hard if possible.  Anything I should be aware of before perform this procedure?  Don't really want to remove all the merits of the case.

    Thanks for any help that can be provided.

    I appreciate the help.  The Caddy is the same that I used before (on the 1st dv7) the 2nd dv7 used the direct taking of 90 degrees into the adapter.  I have both of these me more allotted a 500 GB HD.  All I need pickup is the SSD.

    The "T" sign on the back of my case has no screws - but I can see the 3 component tabs snap at the top of the "T" through the small crack on the case.  These are shown on the exploded view of repair.  I'm projecting from the 'snap-out' Panel down on the vertical leg of the "T".

    Once again; Thank you

  • Windows Easy Transfer will not work for me between my old laptop with Windows XP and my new laptop with Windows 7.

    I am trying to transfer my files to my new laptop with Windows 7 for my old laptop with Windows XP Professional, using the Windows Easy Transfer, that I found on my old laptop.   I tried to make the transfer through my home wireless network and when that did not work...  I connected the two laptops with a cable (the same style of cable, used to connect his computer to a modem or router, not a cable SSB).

    So in summary, I just want to transfer all my files from my old laptop to my new laptop.   I copied the master file of my data from my old laptop on a "stick" assuming that I could download just to stick to the new laptop.  (I have a lot of "sticks" here.)   The idea did not work, of course, results otherwise wouldn't ask this question now.

    If you had previously copied simply data (documents folders) via a key files should be no problem during the copying of that stick to the library on win7 locations, and is there's this which is exactly the err MSG?

  • XW6400 problem two processors with four cores

    I have a XW6400 who I am rebuilding as a gift for a friend. The thing is brand new and never been used.

    My problem... First record:

    Dual Xeon 5130

    8Gb Ram 2RX8

    Asus GT740 1 GB graphics card

    PCI-e USB card 3

    StarTech Sata III PCI - e card (ready for SSD)

    Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit

    BIOS 2.38

    1 TB WD Caviar Black HARD drive

    I managed to get their hands on two Xeon 5410 but after their installation, all that I get out the monitor is... "Power save mode, press any key or move the mouse"... neither of which has no effect.

    However, when I put the 5130's back in, it fires quite happy.

    I have built a certain PC in the past (including another XW6400) but this problem is quite a head scratcher.

    Thanks in advance.

    Rob.

    Rob,

    Don't scratch no more.  You try to load a Xeon Quad Core for a xw6600 in a xw6400.  In theory, you might think that it will work.  It will not... the only processors Attaché who work are listed in the QuickSpecs for the xw6400,.  It has to do with the "section of the BIOS firmware, which includes a white list of specific processors that are allowed.  The quad core Xeon desired is E5345, last sSpec code (SLAEJ), on eBay.  Buy one and if we're going to work, then you can add a second.  I have a 'well known' an in my stash, but practically all I bought used off eBay work very well.

    There are about 10% of the mothers xw6400 who cannot run this processor, and in this case, I have two of the fastest dual core Xeon running in the list, the E5160, last sSpec code (SLAG9).

    I would recommend running the Intel X 25 - M 160 GB or 320 series 160 or 300 GB, used off eBay.  Run firstly through DBAN, then long NTFS format.  Use W7Pro 64-bit or Ultimate 64-bit and load properly with the little ones and the primary partitions.  These particular Intel SSDS are very fast, corresponds to plug SATAII chipset and use the latest version of the Intel Toolbox.  Your WD is a nice document reader.

    You can run the card USB3 of TI of HP, I posted here and a great way to get an output of 2 x 2 (two ports on the back, two in the front) is detailed.  The xw6600 allows you to get the full speed of the slot machine video PCIe x 16 second for USB3, but the xw6400 limits you to 1/2 full speed because of its use of the PCIe gen 1 rather than gen 2 slots for this card.

    I would stick as much as possible with the help of what is on the motherboard, rather than load a bunch of useless cards to get things running and stabilized.  You need not of USB3 and SATA gen III for your friend to have a solid rock and great user experience.

    All the information is here...

    Very nice of you to help your friend.  This new xw6400 has always good life in it, especially if you can do two processor E5345 SLAEJ.  Or, two of the E5160s.

  • Satellite L555-10R - support quad-core processors?

    Hello

    I'm new to the forum. I have a Satellite * L555-10 * and I would like to know

    (* 1) * what kind of motherboard, it is equipped and
    (* 2) * that supports the processors quad core (for example intel Q9100)

    I used the CPU - Z software, but he has not given enough information on the type of motherboard. I want to upgrade the processor and I can't find out if my motherboard supports four cores.

    Thank you in advance!

    Hello

    To be honest, I think that no one can say what motherboard is equipped with it. Here he s only one user to user forum and if you want to know more details, ask the partner of service authorized in your country.

    On the updates, I can only say that it s official unsupported. This means that no one can tell what are the types of processors are supported or not. When you replace the CPU, you will lose your warranty, everything happens on your own risk!

    For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

    Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

    More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.

    Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

  • Is there a CS2 for an iMac with Intel core duo processor, 2006?

    I have an imac of 2006 with Intel core duo running on OS 10.6.8 (snow leopard) and I can not install any later operating system on my computer.  Is there a version of Photoshop, I can install it on my computer?  I can buy an unopened, full retail install version CS2, but the specs say that it is only good on a Mac to be able to.  I find no indication than ever, there is a version of Intel - what are my options?

    .. before someone suggests I buy a new computer, I'll put it simply: Yes, I know that my computer is a dinosaur. I can't buy a new computer for the moment.

    Thank you!

    I can buy an unopened, full retail install version CS2, but the specs say that it is only good on a Mac to be able to.  I find no indication than ever, there is a version of Intel - what are my options?

    There is no Intel of CS2 version. It's only PowerPC.

    That said, OS X 10.6.8 can run PowerPC applications but only if Rosetta is installed. Rosetta is not installed by default on Snow Leopard.

    That said, you are only entitled to use the CS2 without activation link above if you already have a CS2 (or earlier version) license.

  • Maximum for a second reading on Quad Core i5

    Don't know if it's the avenue just to ask this question, but I searched the forum and cannot find an answer - I can't contact Support as I have only CS4 and am just test first CS5.

    ----

    IM experimenting first CS5 with the update since CS4 vision soon (mainly need for InDesign, Fireworks, Dreamweaver CS5), but also in watching Master Collection for more video editing and to make use of my Canon 7 d.

    The question I have is not able to read more than a second in creation (hitting the space bar or the play button) before I stop. Press replay and replay even very small amount.

    Aside from that, I really like the interface and then I import / add / edit as expected and have no problem adding effects and transitions.

    Note: Does not yet right playing a clip to preview.

    I can also export without any problem and can rub in the clip and see the effects and transitions as planned.

    I tried video footage directly out the 7 d and also several different codecs without success.

    Updated trial version that I had this afternoon, but this has not solved the problem.

    I use an iMac Quad Core i5 - 2.66hgz.

    Observe the activity of monitoring really maxed out only during export.

    So today, I decided the Final Cut Pro trial to see if it works, using the same sequences it reads smoothly without any problem - needed one made when using several layers.

    Export the same second 20 (unreleased) video is much faster in first and Final Cut Pro.

    Personally prefer the interface for creating too much and would rather spend my money in improving my suite CS4 than buying FCP.

    Is there something I missed?

    Until then, back to iMovie for my web clips little
