I am looing to put together a new system somewhere between 2.4 and 2.8Ghz.

My question is which processor would be more stable and practically faster with video editing and working with MP3's.

Thanks in advance and sorry if this is a stupid question.😕
 
The new P4C's are the way to go and the are not that much more. I am able to compress in two different windows faster than I was with one before since it uses the HT technology.
 
Thanks for the advice. Any suggestion on what MoBo I should use for this. Preferably one with a built in fast Firewire connection and is is possible to Overclock these.

Thanks
 
The Abit IS7 is a good choice and will be even better once they get the BIOS straigtened out. The Asus is another good board. They are both around $109. The IS7 is shipping with gigabyte lan and is only supposed to come with 10/100. You can check out the official thread in the motherboard section of the forums.

intel is the way to go for video editing/encoding

i'd get the abit is7-g as that is what i am looking into getting 🙂
 
Since you plan to encode and do video editting, Intel is the route to go. I think you would happiest with a 2.6C with any of the motherboards mentioned. Personally for myself I would go with the IC7-G MaxII. Which one you want to go with is all upto you though depending on your budget. The Springdale boards are also doing good, so you can save more money on that route. My choice would be an offering from Asus on that matter though.
 
isn't the way to go with video and stuff dualprocessors? keeps your computer more usable while doing that stuff. and isn't it also important to have a fast hard drive subsystem? and lots of memory also
