wait for it, 342 MH/s on my 7850 OC'd to 1170/1320 Can't do anymore RAM or i would BSOD
Can you borrow bitcoins with nerd credits? It's like street cred but for nerds,
Example:
Daves video blog site is pretty popular with nerds thus he would have a higher nerd cred rating, so he could borrow more bit coins at a lower interest rate

That's why you replace resistors with trim pots
Gasp.....I didn't know that, so when you borrow some and don't pay up a nerd comes and breaks your fingers? That doesn't make much sense.
Well......not everyone is using them for illegal extracurricular activities:

Kids, there are TONS of general PC related forums out there like TomsHardware, AnandTech, ArsTechnica, HardOCP etc tobragdiscuss about general PC related topic, yes, just in case you're not aware, that include GFX, PSU, mobo, cpu, overclocking, heatsink, tweaking, modding, bitcoin, warez, kewl & leet thingy bla..bla.. and etc.
Its really annoying that one has to skip thru tons of these non related PC junk posts in this thread just to watch, follow closely or help/contribute on Dave's "related" problem.
If you look at the motherboard layouts you will observe that the audio functionality has been “fenced off” by a vivid green line (lit up when powered up) as if to emphasise its separation, a kind of PCB quiet-zone. Gigabyte describes it as the “Audio Noise Guard – with path lighting”.

Yes, because when I want the best in audio quality, I put my expensive and sensitive analogue components right next to a wideband RF noise source, and then light it witha magic force field(what seems to be) EL cable. Expect to see a flood of fake OPA627s on Ebay in the next few months...
I'm sure you have seen all the screening, shielding and guard planes / traces that DSOs have, they also put the most sensitive parts as far as possible from the noise sources. Very little of that evident on the motherboard.
Look at the layout of my motherboard ... it's as f'ed up as possible. And there are the super cramped ones

You get that when you have fixed defined industry form factor but a continual change in requirements components and feature sets.
Don't think so, a video of this size can be written in 1-2s by a modern HDD. So give it some additional seconds for seeks, and you're still on the safe side.
This is just a test video - I assume the videos Dave would actually be encoding would be much much larger - which is what I was referring to.
get an additional disk and setup RAID5
Quoteget an additional disk and setup RAID5
RAID5 is slightly out of favour in the enterprise space at present.
This has nothing to do with the final file size, it is to do with the write data rate. A modern decent mechanical HDD is able to write at around 110MB/s, and the transfer to the disk is handled by DMA, so it is completely offloaded from the CPU, using a SSD, or even a RAID0 SSD array would only help on the load/read stage during video editing, not encoding. What would be more beneficial here would be loads of RAM, talking 8GB+.
And cost estimation for a stack of RAM which is hundreds of times faster then any SSD:
32GB DDR3 RAM = ~$250-$300
But... Don't get me wrong here, I love SSDs and I use them in my Desktop and Laptop and would never go back to a mechanical HDD for my OS disk, and I would love a RAID10 SSD array, but the amount of times that I would actually use it to its full potential would be very very rare, and shaving 500ms off a disk wide search for a file just is not worth the cost.
Also, I often grep enormous directories with tens of thousands of files that contain projects such as XBMC or Openbricks which contains the linux kernel source + every source file you could need for a basic GNU system and find it only takes a few seconds on a single standard SSD, I do not see RAID giving me enough of a performance boost here to warrant the cost.
110MBPS ... How 2008 is that. My cheap Hitachi 1TB drives do 200mbps. YES 200MBPS! I have several of them in RAID6 on my file server (and a few 3TB drives)
Extra RAM is useless if you don't use it.
20mS

I really doubt you get that out of a single drive, and you really want to watch your capitalisation. It matters, put a little effort into it.

T4P is right with this one. Seagate specifies for the 7200rpm Barracuda consumder HDDs already a sustained data rate of 210 MB/s. Which actually sounds quite amazing, until you are reminded of access times. It's always access times that kill HDD performance.
Sustained data rate is totally useless in reality anyway (not to mention regularly exaggerated), so..

No, those numbers are not regularly exaggerated. Yes, this number is totally useless to judge performance of a HDD.
