upgrade problem

[eddielpm]

My PC config:
cpu: Celeron 466mhz
motherboard: Asus P3BF
ram: 256mb
hd: 30GB x 2, 16GB, 6.4GB
display card: ATI Expert Play
Capture card: Pinnacle DC30plus
Sound card: SBlive value
--------------------------------
My situtation:
My computer uses 12hrs to encode 45mins video to SVCD format.Therefore I want to upgrade my PC to P4 1.4GB, Asus P4T motherboard and other parts remain unchange.
I have the followings questions?

1. How many time will be used to encode the same video using the new system?
2. Is ATI Expert Play display card compatiable with P4T?
3. Is DC30plus compatiable with P4T?

Thank you!

1) Hard to say, but it will a LOT faster.
2) Who knows? Do they even make those anymore? Your video card may become the bottleneck in your new system if it's too old.
3) Don't know.

Well I have a 1200 mhz and I can encode a vcd in 3 1/2 hours.
Svcd in 5 hours.
I have

Athlon 1200 mhz
500 meg Ram
ATA 100 60 gig HD
VooDoo 5 64 meg video card
SB 128

So around there somewhere.
