My question is: Should I upgrade my old, or buy a new PC?
I currently have a PC with the following:
550 mhz P3
11 GB HD
128 MB ram
16 MB grphics card
Miro DC 30+ grabber card
I was thinking of something like:
1800 mhz
512 MB ram
60-80 GB HD
64 MB Gforce 2 or 3
CD-burner
Can I have a fire-wire card working alongside my DC-30?? Any help and suggestions would be great. Thanks in advance.
depending on the operating system you choose you may have problems getting drivers for dc30+ , rumour has it that dc30+ is being pulled by pinnacle.(latest driver update dated 31/05/2000 , no driver for xp)
http://www.pinnaclesys.de/support/compatibility.asp?product_id=631&lang=2&type_id=4 tells you which motherboards are compatible with dc30+
you want/need two physical hard drives in your editting machine.
