Hi, here at the office, we want to upgrade our 5 year old VT[3] PC.

What do you guys think about this one:

Quad Core Processor Core i7-860,2.8GHz,8MB
Chipset P55
8GB, DDR3 Non-ECC SDRAM Memory,1333MHz, 4X2GB
512MB NVIDIA® Quadro® FX 380, DUAL MON, 2 DP & 1 DVI
Genuine Windows® 7 Professional, with Media, 64-bit

It is mainly used for broadcasting.

The software will remain the same.

Thanks in advance.

Not suggested to use nVidia Quadro. They are expansive and no benifit fro VT.
Try any module form nVidia GForce 7000-9000 series might be better than Quadro.
I will suggest mobo from ASUS.
If you use DDR3, try ram modules with mutiply of 3 (3x2GB or 6x2GB) to get most speed out of the system.

The i7 systems are real screamers. It should rock your new system.
