Hi,

Is this configuration ok for a Vmix PC with PRO license for a workstation for 8 camera replays?


Intel Core i9-13900KS processore 36 MB Cache intelligente TRAY
Asus PRO WS W790E-SAGE SE Intel W790 LGA 4677 EEB
Corsair Dominator CMT64GX5M4B6600C32 memoria 64 GB 4 x 16 GB DDR5 6600 MHz
Corsair Carbide 275R ATX Midi-Tower Gaming Nero
Asus ROG Loki SFX-L 1000W Platinum 24-pin ATX Nero, Argento - Scatola aperta , prodotto nuovo
Samsung MZ-77Q4T0 2.5" 4TB SATA III V-NAND MLC
Asus TUF-RTX4080-16G-GAMING NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 16 GB GDDR6X
Microsoft Windows 10 Pro DVD 64bit 1pk ITA OEM
Samsung 980 PRO M.2 1 TB PCI Express 4.0 V-NAND MLC NVMe
2 x DeckLink 8K PRO - Blackmagic
DeckLink Mini Monitor 4k - Blackmagic

Thanks to all

you also need to change the sata III for an M.2
1 x M.2 4.0x4 4 Tb for replay rec
1 x M.2 4.0x4 1 or 2 Tb for windows

for 8 replay cams (1080p)

from Asus, socket 1700

with 2 x decklink duo 2 cards:

ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-A GAMING WIFI
ASUS ROG STRIX Z790-F GAMING WIFI

with 1 decklink quad 2:

ASUS ProArt Z790-CREATOR WIFI

read the motherboard manuals first, depending on your configuration needs, as some slots may share bandwidth or disable each other

i9-14900K for cpu, cheaper than 13900KS for the same performance

DDR5-5600 Mhz for ram, natively managed by the cpu
(2 x 48 GB if budget allows, for real peace of mind, otherwise 64 GB is fine)

and a large cooling system for the cpu
high-end ventirad (be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 5) or AIO 360 (Asus ROG Strix LC II 360 V2), these are examples
and efficient fans for the case, see the box manual to see what is possible

the rest is ok

decklink mini monitor is for output replay or program ?
in this case, take a decklink duo 2 (pcie 2.0 x4) which allows 4 additional sdi ports (in or out), since there's still a pcie 4.0 x16 port that works in x4.

Note: with the Asus Z790 creator, the graphics card will be a bit limited because when the pcie x16 ports (pcie 1 = graphic card and pcie 2 = quad 2) are occupied at same time, they work in x8 mode.

to sum up, with intel it's either a motherboard with 2 pcie x8 slots managed by the cpu = graphics card + quad 2
recommended by Vmix

or a motherboard with x16 graphics card slot (cpu) + pcie slot capture card managed by the chipset
not recommended by Vmix

if you don't want to limit the graphics card, you can use an NZXT N7 Z790
with 2 x decklink duo 2 and 2 x decklink mini monitor HD (all chipset)
and RTX A4500 for 2 slots graphic card or RTX 4080 wtih riser

but it will be less upgradeable if you want to recycle it for 4K later on, compared with the ProArt Z790-CREATOR.
