[QUOTE="orionmg, post: 18914"] Hello everyone, I have a question about single vs dual processor G5s. I will be purchasing a G5 system in the coming month and have narrowed down my decision to either a Single or Dual 1.8 GHz machine. My question is this... I plan to be working primarily in Final Cut Express and I am wondering if having two processors will give me a significant advantage in terms of performance and speed. I'm trying to figure out where my money would be best spent. Given the fact that I will be doing mostly video editing, would I benefit substantially from having 2 processors? Or should I just get a single 1.8 and put more money towards increasing my RAM and maybe getting a higher speed hard drive? I appreciate any assistance and advice those of you with more experience in this area can provide. Thanks in advance for your help! - Mike [/QUOTE]
