The question is why to use RAID in watchout systems, SSD disks fast enough to deal with 6 FHD outputs easily.
For my systems I always install 2 separate disks, one for OS and second for watchout, its very hard to believe that disk will fail without RAID.
I have one PC with 6 outputs which runs everyday for 10-18 hours a day for already 6 months, and (knocking 3 times on wood
) no single problem was with that system.0 -
Almost the same, the delay is so minor that you barely can see it
0 -
Almost the same, I use BM cards and they are great
0 -
yes, there will be no problem at all
Me, recently myself moved 5 displays show from v.3 to v.5 without any problem

Should be ok, but still 3820 will not behave well with 6 outputs, for ssd choose 2 different drives, even buy 2 of 60gb

Any but not watchout drive
Secondly if you have 16 gb then you can leave 8-16 gb for virtual, there is no need for double memory

Wanted to share my second beast I made
MB: Gigabyte GA-X79-UD3 - 4 pcie + 1 pci ,bios F11
Memory: kingston hyperX blue 1600 DDR-III DIMM 16gb KIT 4*4Gb <PC3-12800>
CPU: Intel Core i7-3930K LGA2011
Proc cooler: Corsair H100 waterpump
Graphics: MSI ATI 7970, 3GB, GDDR5, 384bits LIGHTNING (2 DVI - 4 miniDP) 6 outputs - 4 Active DP needed
Case: Define R4 USB3.0 Black Pearl
PSU: SeaSonic P-860 860W Active PFC (Modular) PLATINUM
Hard drives: 2x SSD 120Gb SATA 6Gb/s OCZ Vertex 3
Capture: decklink duo + DVI extender, DATAPATH VisionRGB-X2, Avermedia analog
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
The total cost including inputs cards about 5500$

The configuration looks ok, but if you already have 6 outputs graphic card then build better pc
Proc: i7 3930k
Motherboard: gigabyte or asus x79 (I use ga-x79-ud3)
Memory: 8 gb is good enough
Hard drive: 2*120gb ssd (I use ocz vertex 3 120gb)
Water cooling for proc (h100 from corsair is beast)
Some more decent inputs card (datapath or/and decklink duo or extreme)

yes, its called In-Time in video cue properties

Good to know, when we chosed projectors to buy for Ron arad show, we asked our suppliers to bring to our office two of each kind of the projectors they have.
There was Christie, Barco, Sanyo, sharp and few others
So we picked them by picture quality, contrast and brightness. After all we chosed lhd700 because it's really great projector, sometimes I compare it to our Christie lx1500

Of course.
1. CTV = CCTV = Close Circuit TV
2. Screen is silicon strips (something like 5000 strips, maybe more, I didn't count them, the screen is not ours, Ron Arad made it and brought it to Israel) you can see here http://www.eyesonthewall.net/projects/ron-arads-curtain-call/ he made same show in London.
3. We have this problem in our Sharp DLP projectors, which we didn't solved for now, the good thing in LHD700 which we use in this show, that there is almost no increased light on overlap. I don't know why, but even if the screen black all screen looks almost the same, maybe a little lighter on overlap.

So think yourself maybe the link is incorrect and that it's doesn't read it correctly

We have few DLP SHARP projectors, but due to DLP projectors also processing video, there are some delays on output, its very noticeable in live CTV.
The LHD700 its great projector, for inside and outside shows, after the show (the link above) 6 of this projectors going to stay in big hall to project 50m video wall, which have sunlight from outside and after my testings the image quality is great.
We also have Christie Mirage HD20K-J 3 chip DLP projectors, but they are too have delays, so they are basically used on shows without live CTV
So its very dependent on what show we are running.

It's strange that in US same projector cost more than in Israel
anyway here a show we made with twelve LHD700 projectors.

Make sure the shortcut in startup folder doesn't contain any project name

Christie ldh700/800 doing great job
It's full hd 7000/8000 lumens projector which I use in big hall with sun light from outside
The cost for ldh700 is about 8000$ in Israel, I'm sure it will be less in Europe or USA

Ok, after the serious testings I can proudly
say that the system works great,I running the system with following specs:
MB: Gigabyte GA-X79-UD3 (rev. 1.0) 4 pcie + 1 pci ,bios F11
Memory: kingston hyperX blue 1600 DDR-III DIMM 8Gb KIT 2*4Gb <PC3-12800>
CPU: Intel Core i7-3820 LGA2011
Proc cooler: Shagon w720, which was made for 2011 socket
Graphics: SAPPHIRE FleX HD 6870 1GB GDDR5 - DualDVI+HDMI+2miniDP (5 outputs, only 2 active dp to dvi needed)
Rack case: ARK IPC-4U600, vents: front 120mm, back 80mm X 2
PSU:SeaSonic M12D-750W Modular
2x SSD 60 Gb SATA 6Gb/s OCZ Vertex 3
Capture: decklink duo + DVI extender
Avermedia analog
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
Decklink duo with DVI extender working just great
The system is running 5 fullHD outputs with 40 layers, that's mean on some points of show the system runs 15 full hd movies simultaneously.
The 3820 proccesor doing a great job (I was sceptic about its performance, but it just great proc)
Just wanted to share personal expiriance on multi-output system, till now I was only using max 2 outputs from one pc.
I just so exited from this build, that wanted to share

It's should be ok but you don't need 6gb memory unless you want to output 1600p resolution

Thank you very much
Righ now I made my first rackmount station with following specs:
MB: Gigabyte GA-X79-UD3 (rev. 1.0) 4 pcie + 1 pci ,bios F11
Memory: kingston hyperX blue 1600 DDR-III DIMM 8Gb KIT 2*4Gb <PC3-12800>
CPU: Intel Core i7-3820 LGA2011
Proc cooler: Shagon w720, which was made for 2011 socket
Graphics: SAPPHIRE FleX HD 6870 1GB GDDR5 - DualDVI+HDMI+2miniDP (5 outputs)
Rack case: ARK IPC-4U600, vents: front 120mm, back 80mm X 2
PSU:SeaSonic M12D-750W Modular
2x SSD 60 Gb SATA 6Gb/s OCZ Vertex 3
Capture: decklink duo + DVI extender
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit
For now it's working just great, 5 outputs 1920x1080 without any problems and CPU temps no more than 70C (with liquid it's can be less) but for now it's ok
My next one will be better

Jonas I have a little question
On all you wo stations you put eye-4806 rackmount but this rackmount come with 80mm rear fan, where you applied/putted intel liquid 120mm fan
Thanks
George

I didn't talked about Microsoft remote desktop, I talked about dataton own remote desktop like vnc, radmin, dameware or my favorite VMware remote desktop which working amazingly fast with 1920x1080 resolution, I can see hd movies on local network with VMware remote desktop

I had similar problem when tried to load pictures or movies from previously installed xp system
For some reason windows 7 didn't wanted to show files which where on old xp drive

) no single problem was with that system.
Cable question

1. Yes, with this specs 2 outputs will run as smooth as butter
2. Best suggestion to use DVI to fiber on distance more than 25m
