Do I need the extra vram?
I will be using maya, nuke after effects zbrush, photoshop, premier etc.
I will be working in 2k and up to 4k+ raw resolutions (can use proxies).
right now the AMD firepro w5000 is in my price range but I have been told 2gb is low by today's standards.
If i splurge extra on the w7000 model will I really make a gain.
I will also be doing heavy animation averaging 4k+ texturing.
It is also been suggested to gt a GTX680 4gb version but i'm not as keen on this. Unless it's on par with the w5000 in speed becuase all the online test suggest it's superfast in comparison.
I am currently using a amd fx8350(plan to upgrade to 8core intel in future) with an NVIDIA QUADRO Fx 5600 1.5gb which i bought used at the start of the year. before that i had a consumer NVIDIA 7600 256ram and the frame rate jump in maya improved a lot but I would like to get new graphics card which is up to scratch.
Thanks!!
