Advice needed on upgrades.

adrianrocket — Thu, 12 Jul 2018 11:15:23 +0800

Hi all,
My current system are as below specs:

Casing : Cooler Master HAF X
MOBO : Asus P8P67
CPU : Core i7-2600 3.4 GHz (Sandy Bridge)
Ram : 16GB (4X4GB)
GPU :AMD Radeon HD 6850 (PCI-e 2)
SSD : Kingston HyperX Savage 240GB
HDD : 1TB WD X 2

But not sure it this spec still worth upgrading or not, since my processor, mobo and gpu also old already.
Btw, i am using this system for photo,video editing from photoshop, premiere to after effects.

Problem that I face:
a) i cant real time render full quality of video in adobe premiere. Sure lag if set full reso editing.
b) When playing PUBG on steam, everything have to set low...same goes to FF15.

Was wondering, will these issues being solve if just upgrade GPU, but if not mistaken my MOBO only have PCI-e2 slots.

Thanking in advance for your advice...

IT Questions

adrianrocket — Sun, 15 Jul 2012 22:15:43 +0800

Any IT expert can give me some idea for my brother's assignment?

He need to write a software (not using excel) that can link to Autocad to produce engineering drawings.

Example:

The software that will be created has the capability to determine the required dimensions of a particular structure, however it only provides numerical results.

What he need now is to create a link to AutoCad, so that it can produces drawings automatically based on the numbers there.

Thanking in advance!! ^^

Dear Lengzai and Lenglui,

I want to get a DSLR and also a CAMCORDER. But i found out that nowadays DSLR camera do have video recording function with high definition 1080p. Need advices from you guys which brand should i buy. Because i saw a Sony SLT-A55V, which is not bad because of the Video Focus and Background Defocus function. Do Nikon and Canon have this function too?

P.S : My budget is around 2K++

Kworld TV Card and Pinnacle 15

adrianrocket — Sun, 27 Mar 2011 14:45:06 +0800

Dear Lengzai & Lenglui,

I just bought a K-world PCI Analog TV Card Lite (PVR-TV 7134SE)[U] last week and try to capture video from my Sony Camcorder which is using
Hi8 tape without firewire socket. So i am using S-Video.

I face problem when capturing the video from my camcorder using Cyberlink Director.
There are some line line in the middle of the video and the image are not that clear.

Then i try to get a Pinnacle Studio HD 15 application to capture. "Hopefully can capture clearer"
End up Pinnacle cannot detect my Kworld Card.

Now the only i way i can capture is using the old way.

Is there any advice can i get from you guys...??

Thanks
