I envisage the purchase of a pc, I would like to know ideale configuration to work with vvvv, knowing that I use in the same time one or two application: max, ableton, glitch sequenceur for window, etc…
I go to see to alienware and lenovo but i didn’t know the resources which uses vvvv I don’t know that graphic card is the best adapting, ram? as for the processor I intend to put an intel i7.
here is a discussion from the old forum. hw specs have not changed dramatically since then, so most suggestions mentioned in that should still be valid…
(ofcourse you’d buy a nvidia 580 nowadays instead of the mentioned 295 gtx and probably no i920 anymore, but other than that everything is pretty much the same i’d say…)
hi tof.
for myself i was hesitating between Alienware and Clevo.
Finally for budget i run on an asus G53JW-SX053V. I7 and 1.5G on Nvidia 460. I m very happy of it and i m using it with 2 others apps at the same time and vvvv.
i would say that the offer in “Republic Of Gamers” game are great
the brand new dell XPS 15 is worth a look. it has a nvidia 435m GT with 2GB. its about 1000 euro, and somewhere it was written that you can have it with a full hd led screen…
@kalle:
i think we may speak about cycle. I was very Toshiba before, and actually Toshiba’s offer is very bad and less quality in its construction. i do no more trust in the quality actually of toshiba.
Asus has made a real jump of quality. I have two towers on asus mainboard, working without troubles since 3 years, I m buying for the dance companies i m working for only asus, since 2 years, as the offer in terms of power is really better than everybody. especiallly ROG machines.
i don t know where to find better than this asus: NVIDIA 460 1,5Go, i7, in 15.6 inches at 1200 euros…
so actually i would say at this price, definitively asus…
@manuel:
you can use usb adaptor to firewire if the device doesnt need to be feeded in power. dont forget also expresscard adaptors if you have a slot for it.
“No, it is not possible to connect a FireWire interface to your computer’s USB port via a FireWire to USB adapter since this connection is not sufficient to run a FireWire audio interface.”
