  RE: SSD Storage setup for editing?
  @Cliff Etzel I can understand your budget constrains and as I also mentioned, it's not a bad setup you have. I personally moved away from eSata. I always had issues with it even on my servers as simple external backup drive connection. It should be

  There is no Live Preview when editing effects with a GTX card. I notice this on 1050, 1050Ti, and 1060 with the latest GeForce Drivers (sorry, I will not use old drivers for one piece of software - I'm still on 14, anyways, so I just won't upgrade

  RE: Release VEGAS Pro 365 - General Discussion

  RE: What is going on now with Vegas?
  Well, Clif’s hardware is certainly special but I believe he recently purchased a new 8700k based system? I can only test it in VP14 and will do so later. Yes - I recently updated to the i8700K, ASUS Z370-H motherboard and 16GB of Corsair Vengeance

  Which GPU tech moving forward - Future of Vegas???
  What are others thoughts about GPU tech moving forward? Do others feel MAGIX will still support AMD as the best option for Vegas Pro? I'm trying to convince myself to stick with Vegas if a Radeon card is still the way to go. Vegas 14 is still pretty

  RE: Extrenal monitor preview freezes entire computer
  I'll share this anecdote from the 1990's. I created an AutoCAD drawing for a data center upgrade. At the time, almost no one on the planet used pdf files to send e-paper to people involved in big projects. It has since become the de facto standard.

  RE: Having some issue with Vegas Pro 15 That I cant work out -
  If you're certain you've ruled out hardware and heat, then something has changed. Possibly a silent upgrade. A system restore to a couple of weeks ago might be revealing, as windows let's you know what has changed. Also, posting the dump from "error

  RE: New build for Vegas Pro - Intel/nVidia or AMD Ryzen/GPU?
  Sounds pretty similar to my FX 8350 build. Down to the RAM Qty. A Xeon though should be stable enough as long as it has ECC RAM, it'll just take a while. I'd venture to guess it to be superior to my FX 8350. If you added a second RAID you could

  Cliff, Resolve 15 beta was just released and is expected to be extremely buggy and just for those wanting to try out new features and help BMD debug the program. I recommend downloading the free version of Resolve 14 if you want to give it a spin.
