Go back to 32 bit, it will solve your problems.

Does anybody know if a system with the same specs except for being a 32-bit and 64-bit encode video faster?

Well it should IF the software you are using to encode supports 64bit. Heck some software doesn't even support multi processors. So the answer is yes, if the software supports it and uses it.

I was thinking of getting Flash CS4 and putting it on a 64 bit Vista, AMD Phenom 9950, 4GB of ram to encode video to FLV.

It currently takes me about 5 minutes to encode a 1 minute video to FLV.

I have a 64 bit HP Quad and its rocket fast.
I love it.

DutchTeenCash · 11-26-2008, 11:36 AM

boneprone · 11-26-2008, 11:39 AM

Your first mistake was buying a Gateway.

Slick · 11-26-2008, 12:22 PM

Hopefully I'll have no problems here on Friday when I build my new system. Every 3 years I build myself a new monster system and this time is no exception

I got the new Intel Core i7 965 quad core CPU and Vista ultimate 64-bit, so we'll see how that goes.

This is your issue...

version5 · 11-26-2008, 01:45 PM

I have a quad core with a little more power than urs but i'm telling u to go to XP like now lol.

I spent 6 months using vista until 2 weeks ago when i thought fuck this shit i'm going back to XP and my PC works so nicely now. Everything is fast smooth and I feel like this PC can do some proper damage now!

Turboface · 11-28-2008, 02:35 PM

Mozilla has a new version of FireFox called Minefield, which is for 64-bit machines. I installed it and it's blindingly fast. However don't plan on installing the Flash plug-in, because it isn't compatable. It's for x86 only. It's amazing that four years after x64 became available Adobe still hasn't managed to release an x64 version!
