Hey all,
I'm in the market to upgrade my video card.
I do more video editing/rendering than gaming. When I do game it's mainly older legacy games like Sim City 4, Sim City 5, The stronghold series there's others but fall into that group.
I've been strictly a Geforce guy, but now looking to get into a card that has more power for video work. Which I've read that Radeon is the player in this category. How true that is is beyond me.
Right now I have a Geforce 430 with 1gig mem..
I've been looking and can't decide if Radeon or Geforce is better at rendering in Vegas Pro 12
I've been looking at the Radeon 480 with 4gig or the Geforce 1060 with 4gig. I might be able to go to the 8gig model if I can find a good price for it.
I've heard that 4 gig is the limit pretty much for rendering. Don't know how true that is though.
So which card is better and is 4gig plenty or would 8gig make a big difference?
Right now my rendering takes about an hour and a half for a DVD video or about 4 hours for a blue-ray. How much of a difference in rendering time will I see with either model and mem. configuration?
I'm running Win 7 64 bit with 16gig of memory, I5 at 3.5ghz. Samsung 750 for a boot drive and a 2- WD Black 1tb for storage.
TIA
