So I built a new system over the holidays, Core i5-2500K, 4 cores, 16 Gigs of RAM, solid state drive for the operating system volume, GTX 570 and I think I’m on top of the world with a system that is fast enough to solve all the worlds problems….BUT….then I go to convert some AVI files to MP4 for my iPhone or that piece of crap Ideapad and I realize that computers still have a long way to go!!!! It still takes forever and a day to do video and audio encoding….trying to convert 14 movies and I’m at almost 2 hours in and about half done!
