i must have been unclear but i run 10.9.5/fcp6 on one drive and swap that out for another that runs linux/resolve. i'm trying to find a hardware configuration that will maintain the ability to run either system. sounds like there's a possibility that these cards might actually do it: GTX Titan...

thanks for the quick reply, trs96. much appreciated. sounds like my desired setup is pretty much screwed, though. sounds like i have to just keep things as is if i want to maintain access to my old final cut files. too bad final cut won't virtualize. maybe i'll look into that. thanks again, babag

about 8 years ago i got great advice here and have never looked back, until now. back then i built a system: https://www.tonymacx86.com/threads/audio-video-hack-pro-station-check-me-on-this-please.141363/#post-870648 that system has been running well ever since. i used it mainly for final cut...

thanks for the ideas, gb. can't resize the windows on the original drive as there's not space to do so. that's why the new drive. also, VERY reluctant to make any changes to my original drive, like enlarging windows, deleting windows, enlarging osx. my general practice is to keep the original...

well. some progress but only a little. i can migrate from the smaller to the larger drive but only if i do an exact clone, leaving the various partitions the same size as they were on the smaller drive. that sort of defeats the purpose, though. i had some success by using the built-in w7 disk...

i've had a dual boot hackintosh running for quite a while (mavericks/w7-64pro). it's been on a 250gb ssd and i have a new 500gb ssd i'd like to clone it to. i did a test using clonezilla and was able to get it to boot both systems but i could not take advantage of the new space. clonezilla...

edit: oh, yeah. since this is brand new, the mavericks download is 10.9.5 almost this same system but 760 video card. following this guide for setup: http://www.tonymacx86.com/374-unibeast-install-os-x-mavericks-any-supported-intel-based-pc.html tried previously to set up snow leopard and...

thanks again gb. took your advice and ran things through a calculator and it came up well within the 850w the ps is rated for, even allowing an extra 100w. think i'll stick with the corsair 850. especially since i can't imagine i'd ever run all eight drives the case allows for. probably no more...

thanks so much, going bald. spent yesterday going over your comments and reading up. went through shilohh golden build thread and firewire thread. the latter was very confusing. here's my revised list. comments appreciated. Intel Core i7-4930K Ivy Bridge-E 6-Core 3.4GHz LGA 2011 130W Desktop...

i'm pretty confident in looking over all of the info here that a build will be successful. what i'm trying to figure out is if it will be any faster/more robust than the 3.1 i now have. for example, i'm doing audio mixing and am experiencing freezes and skipping when running a lot of tracks with...

please do keep this thread updated. i'm interested in something very similar and am anxiously following the progress. thanks, BabaG

thanks for this. very helpful info. anybody on the specifics of performance? thanks again, BabaG

can i ask if you considered the 4790k and why you decided to go with the 4770k? the prices seem almost the same. thanks, BabaG

looked at the golden builds, the video editing station in particular. i see that it reports itself as a 'mac pro 3.1.' i actually have a mac pro 3.1, early 2008, and am having some performance issues with it on a current project. for that reason i'm looking at a new build. i'm having some...
