"Sounds really good so far but wouldn't multi-cores help with video processing speed? To import High Def video takes a alot of processor power. This should take advantage over the multi-core processors. I'd like to see how much more effiecient it is. Rendering is also processor intensive. What about BUS speed? How will that play out in multi-core processors?"

Somewhat, but your mbiggets problem is throughput, not CPU speed. Getting the frames into the box, then shuffling them around is a killer. Sure CPUs help a lot, but you need to have really fast RAM and a raid array.

You think you have problems, try rendering 3D and compositing in HD or film res!
