High End Server Spec Question

Post by DarkAsBlack »

Will this hardware spec be sufficient for 10 layers of HD, two usb 3.0 Black Magic Pro and two Triplehead2go. This will be controlled via Artnet and also be triggered midi simultaneously. Nine projectors edge blended, one preview monitor, one output monitor and one desktop monitor. I’m a Pandoras Box, Hippo SDI-HD, Catalyst user, I know the limitations from these servers but not this software on custom machines. Thanks in advance.
Cheers,

Intel I7 3.4Ghz Quad-Core
24GB DDR3
02 x EVGA Geforce GTX 560
EVGA Geforce GT 520
02 x 64GB SSD (Raid)
02 x 2TB HD (Raid)
Case, cooling and power supply to support this.

Like you I am a Pandora Box,Hippo guy and would be very interested to know how you get on with this project.
I have been thinking along similar lines and would love to hear what you end up with.

Hey Ho... I am a Pandoras Box oparator too :-)
I'm not able to answer all of your questions because u are using equipment in a special constellation...
U have to make some tests by yourself!

In the past i've made some tests...but without any extra hardware plugged in.
LOOK HERE >> http://www.resolume.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8441

Others:
- Yes u can use a Matrox...how much? - I don't know
- Multi GPU is not supported.. till now.. maybe in R4!?
- 10 Layers with full HD simultaneously ..hmm.. I would say carefully > Depends on the codec!
- Simultaneous Artnet and Midi triggering is no problem.
