So I am writing up a build for a video editing machine to handle to monitors and be very powerful.

Option 1
OCed Q6600 @ 3.6G
Asus P5E X38
4GB DDR2 1200
150GB Raptor
9600GT
Vista Ultimate

Option 2
2 Quad-core Harpertown's 5420's @ 2.5G
Tyan 5400 Dual LGA771
8GB DDR2 667
150GB Raptor
9600GT
Vista Ultimate

Each will be running the most recent version of Pinnacle Studio and I want the video to edit and render/compile as quickly as possible as there is 3+ years worth of it, and much more in the future. OK, so, I want a definitive answer. No "shoulds", "maybes", "coulds", just tell me which option will be faster for this purpose.

Thanks
