Haswell Rig Recommendation

[Ran Fujiyama]

---

@butitoy: yup.. just to test my rig's limit i tried taken raw pic from my DSLR at hightest Raw File format hehehe.. yeah, ang CS5 ra pud naka run na application when i tried it. suwayan nako siguro open lain bug.at2x na program, i'll see how the outcome will be.


@keropi: thank you sir for that informative link.. i will go with your advices, salamat kaayo..

so this will be my final, specifications.. based on all of your advises,


Processor: i7 4770K 3.5Ghz 1150
CPU Coolor: Air Type (CM V8 GTS)
Mobo: Asus Sabertooth Z87 TUF
GPU: Nvidia GTX 770 2GB (single card)
HDD System: Samsung 840 Pro Series 256GB
HDD Scratch: intel SSD 60GB
HDD Storage: 3TB Western Digital
Memory: 16GB Corsair Dominator Platinum
PSU: Silverstone Full Modular 600W
Casing: CM Scout 2 White


Parts already acquired:

Processor - Mobo - GPU - Memory - HDD System - HDD Scratch - Casing


folow up questions lang mga sir..

1. as for my planned general storage disk. i currently have 4 1TB HDDs.. is it advisable if i use them nalang with my planned build or it is avisable to dispose this nalang and buy and single 4TB HDD?

2. granting my mobo-proc are both OCable.. mo suffice naba na akong on hand na cpu cooler.. or indespensable gyd ang Close loop for that purpose? kay basin ako nalang baligya ako V8 and probably buy a H100

3. sakto naba nang 600w? i will only be using one GPU nalang, but i have like 6 cooling fans installed in my current case and more bling2x (NZXT Led strip and probably a fan controller)?

4. did i do the right thing of dissing off half of my memory nalang? based on the links given, not unless if mag sige ko'g work ug dagko gyd kaayo na files and ram disk.. 16GB should be more than enough ra daw?


thanks again guys for your constructive advises

1. as for my planned general storage disk. i currently have 4 1TB HDDs.. is it advisable if i use them nalang with my planned build or it is avisable to dispose this nalang and buy and single 4TB HDD?

i advise on single 4TB WD Black < no partition >

lesser power consumption | lesser seek time than 4 x 1TB , unles mag RAID5 ka of 4x1TB [ stripped + parity ] which is the safest while fastest RAID config as i know for personal use < not including big infa NAS | SAN >

2. granting my mobo-proc are both OCable.. mo suffice naba na akong on hand na cpu cooler.. or indespensable gyd ang Close loop for that purpose? kay basin ako nalang baligya ako V8 and probably buy a H100

yes, payts ra kaayo na ur V8 na cooler even if mag OC ka

but if nahan ka mag H100.kalami ana and ur old V8 then.

3. sakto naba nang 600w? i will only be using one GPU nalang, but i have like 6 cooling fans installed in my current case and more bling2x (NZXT Led strip and probably a fan controller)?

ok ra, within bounds ra
but it's very ok to have more juice on 700W - 800W
basin d i maganahan ka mag SLI

4. did i do the right thing of dissing off half of my memory nalang? based on the links given, not unless if mag sige ko'g work ug dagko gyd kaayo na files and ram disk.. 16GB should be more than enough ra daw?

16GB wud be enough for RAW.
but if pwede mag 32GB ur RAM coz 4 slots imong board, it won't hurt since u have 4 sticks already.

, it would hurt the budget if mag palit pa.as build from scratch >

i don't know if valid akong concerns ani, but based on experience lang bro, is it really advisable na dili e partition ang hdd? i had a 2TB external HDD before then what happened nacorrupt bitaw na, nakaguol dili ang HDD but what was inside it (official raw pictures and videos during my wedding) mao na until now wala pa gyd ko natagaan sa akong videographer sa among video. grr.. i was thinking if na partition ko to, basin pa dili tanan files nako na among..

as for raid 5, capable naba ang Z87 sabertooth ani? or do i still need to buy a raid controller?

yes, payts ra kaayo na ur V8 na cooler even if mag OC ka

but if nahan ka mag H100.kalami ana and ur old V8 then.

more on aesthetics man gud ko, mao mo prefer ko sa V8 GTS, as long as i know na it's okay for OCing then i'll just use it.

ok ra, within bounds ra
but it's very ok to have more juice on 700W - 800W
basin d i maganahan ka mag SLI

hmm.. i posted my extra GPU na bro bert, so mura'g wa koy plans mag SLI na, i am following your advise for now.. if ever man gani, mag upgrade nalang ko puhon ug mas kusog na GPU..

16GB wud be enough for RAW.
but if pwede mag 32GB ur RAM coz 4 slots imong board, it won't hurt since u have 4 sticks already.

, it would hurt the budget if mag palit pa.as build from scratch >

noted bro.. basin unya na gyd ko makadecide if i'll use 32G or 16G if ma porma na nako then i'll test it if dili ba mastress out ang memory at 16GB


salamat kaayo sa advice... hopefully maka-build nako balik by summer puhon.

if that's what ur videographer said about the corruption, it's quite unbelievable.

if na na curropt ang files but not the partition..hmm na over written?

anyways naa pa ur externals? kay ako suwayan ug recover ang files.

anyways, most probable cause is power surge

i don't partition my Personal HDDs anymore bro

i feel its a bit slower that separate HDDs < even on seagate with NCQ >

and many times nako kasuway ug failed partitions on high speed | heavy works

mostly caused by saving on photoshop + power flicker


RAID5 on SABERTOOTH Z87

yes.
