<br>
</div>Definitely, Intel CPU are generally better. It's just my experience,<br>
especially for computation task as with photo.<br>
<div class="im"><br>

<br>
USB3. Forget USB2 now. USB3 is more faster and still compatible with USB2<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div style>Forget SATA3 for now : i already have the HDD, and i don't have any money to change HDDs. I will do with the hdds i already have.</div>

</div>Here NVidia with dual DVI (multiscreen here). I drop video card fan<br>

<br>
</div>Here, 8 cores (i7). As i started to plan multicore CPU support<br>
everywhere, when time permits, you can plan at least 4 core as an i5.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div style>Ok, intel i5 is a good idea, but which one, and wich compatible mobo ?</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

Memory : here 16Gb, because i compute a lots of Panorama. I run also<br>
few Virtualbox for compilation stuff. So memory is important.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div style>I forgot the use of panorama. You're right, i need more to compil/treat larges picutres. 16 Gb is best.</div><div>
</div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<br>
Generally, i take always intel chipset, not especially the last one,<br>
to be sure that Linux support is optimum.<br>
<br>
Storage is very important : I use 3Tb of SATA3 (Western Digital<br>
Green). I had 12Tb in my computer (LVM)<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div style>il will do with the hdds i have for now</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

Network is 1Gb with CPL device to have everywhere that i want the home<br>
network. In my garage, i use a 12Tb NAS using Excito B3 device + HDD<br>

I sync NAS with my computer every night for backup. A simple script<br>
