ADDITIONAL COMMENTS
A few weeks ago my old CPU failed on me so I decided to go for a full system upgrade minus the GPU as I was planning on using my old XFX Radeon HD 4890 XT 1GB until Black Friday/Cyber Monday to see if I could snag a deal. Now I am being informed my GPU is not working correctly so I need one now.
I have heard VRAM is the most important when it comes to video editing, and CUDA support
At this moment, time does not equal money. We are just shooting passion projects on the RED Dragon here and there, eventually hoping to get into the commercial world where time will be money.
I've been looking at the following for options
1)ASUS ROG GeForce 980 - http://www.ncix.com/detail/evga-geforce-gtx-780-967mhz-93-84058.htm
2)EVGA GeForce 780 - http://www.ncix.com/detail/evga-geforce-gtx-780-967mhz-93-84058.htm
There is also the option of the 980 Ti which has been suggested a few times, but it is a few hundred more dollars then I was hoping to spend.
