is it worth getting an external hd with a fire wire?

would it help uploading speeds a lot or not very much? any advice would be much appreciated.

USB 3 and e-sata are faster and more common so no

im going for optimal stuff what do you think i should do

[maks]

Firewire 800 - 3.2 Gb/s
USB 3.0 - 5Gb/s
SATA 3 - 6Gb/s

That's small 'b' so gigabit not gigabyte. For the (mega/giga)byte per second divide those numbers by 8

[maks]

Also that's the maximum data transfer speed of the bus, reading from a hard drive you probably won't notice the difference between USB 3 and e-sata

Also if the drive you get is sata 1 or 2 it will be much slower, with USB 3 you know what you're getting

Summary: Get usb 3.0 if you have the ports for it, e-sata if you don't

wtf a 26 min video takes 3 hours to upload/process, but a 37 min video looks like its going to take 8 hours...

length doesn't matter only size

mine has a slight curve (nowhere near as extreme as barry's) which makes it feel thicker than it actually is, it's worked out well for me

my penis becomes very thick about two thirds up like a dogs knot where the head is actually smaller than it

when I finally fuck my sister we'll need a lot of lube

also rootbeer I think I misunderstood your original question, a new bus like USB 3.0 would drastically improve speeds from the computer to the drive and back but if you're uploading to the internet then your ISP is the bottleneck and you'll see little or no improvement

The problem is that editing/processing/uploading takes so much processing power on the pc I felt like if I upload the files from an external drive it would speed things up. Also I am a computer noob so maybe I'm misunderstanding something, but I do know it would be faster to save files from fraps to an external as I'm recording.

if I were you I'd drop the image quality and resolution and save it as some compressed format like avi because youtube is going to shit on the quality anyway why spend all that time uploading 1080p to end up with a 640x480 video

also i have the best internet possible for where i live, so that cant be upgraded anymore

[maks]

different format maybe? for example avi's are compressed they'll have a much smaller file size than an mpg or something

Download this http://www.cpuid.com/downloads/cpu-z/1.63-setup-en.exe

Run it, take screenshots of the CPU and memory tabs and post them itt.

this is while saving a video btw

also sometimes when my penis gets really hard the veins become very hard and stick out and it honestly feels like there's metal wire under the skin, probably a bug implanted by the secret service

With out a standalone GPU (video card) you are wasting your time converting videos, on-board graphics suck. Instead of messing with external drives and firewire (Steve Jobs 'reach around')add a second 7200 rpm internal drive.

your CPU is a budget price driven component, a Yugo

so would you get another hard drive or a new video card?

I would replace the CPU. It's not going to make your uploads go any faster, but converting between formats, etc will work much better.

The CPU is essentially a bargain chip, that's your bottleneck. you'd be much better off with a Phenom or an FX and can build a barebones kit based on one of those on Tigerdirect for under $300. What uclacardfan said about the video card is incorrect, you are processing video not rendering it so the GPU is irrelevant.

so you would buy a new computer instead of upgrading this one?

Assuming your motherboard will support a better CPU, you can spend

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...1351&CatId=332 $250 for a complete system

or

http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...262&CatId=4432 $99 for the same chip by itself

For me it's worth it because of all the other crap in the package. For instance the barebones kit is running 1600Mhz RAM, according to cpuid yours is running 600Mhz, and that makes a HUGE difference.

Also since you'd be going from AMD to AMD you can (probably) just pop your old hard drive in there and let Windows pick up all the new drivers and you wouldn't even have to reinstall or anything

[rubycalaber]

I have 7 external harddrives because I cant bring myself to delete the useless garbage I save

Also make sure you're running a 64 bit Win 7. Check if you have both "c:\program files" and "c:\program files (x86)" If you do it's 64 bit if not you're only using half your RAM
