Krisboats Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 you'd want a fairly decent speed processor to encode the video's quickly, anything over like 3.0 Ghz (intel) or 2800 (amd) should do the job fine. Also you'll want about a gig of ram, definately NOTHING LESS THAN 512mb. Probably a fairly decently sized hard drive as well to store the video's on. Mine's 160gb with a partition of about 30mb for the windows software, then the rest of the space for everything else. something along the lines of this pc world link this one is about the spec you'll want but obviously as with all things you'll most likely find a better price on a better spec somewhere else. And it definately depends on how much you would want to spend. If you gave us a price i'm sure there'd be a couple of peopl that'd have fun for a few minuted building up the ideal computer for you on somewhere like www.overclocker.co.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tank_rider Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 The spec Chris gives above is pretty much spot on for what you want. I'd never buy a PC from PCWorld as anything I've had to do with them has ended in disappointment. If your after a whole package (monitor and everything) then getting a complete pc online will often be cheaper than building one up, however ill have a look and try to do both when ive got some time.

Hoot Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 I think for the price Kris is suggesting, i'd go for somthing like This Or maybe This (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krisboats Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 I think for the price Kris is suggesting, i'd go for somthing like This Or maybe This :ermm: Nope, mine is still better than both of those, with these your sacrificing the spec for a larger screen. the £689.99 packard bell processor is 0.06 ghz faster but with half the cache size and a smaller hard drive size, it does have a larger screen though but i would have thought he would prefer a faster computer to an overly large screen. and the other one is just plain nasty, admittedly the processor is good but the ram is half the size and the hard disc drive is almost half the size as well. plus it has a lower spec graphics card (i think). I'd never buy a PC from PCWorld as anything I've had to do with them has ended in disappointment. oh yeah i forgot to say don't actually buy one from pc world. Listen to andy (tankrider) he knows his shit. And if he does spec up a computer for you it's gonna be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
