Im looking for a good card for a good price. I have a quad-core at 2.66 with 8 gigs of ram and a 9800geforce card. i run cs4 on vista64bit. im not sure if its my video card but when i try to preview my animations in full res on AE, AE crashes. Good thing it asks me to save my work before it crashes. im looking to speed up my computer while im working in cs4. thanks in advance for reading my thread.

so if i upgrade to one of those cards would my workflow speed up? or is there something in my settings in AE or premiere that i should change?

Generally you can do a very very small overclock on stock cooling - but only small. But even that depends on your current cooling sysem.
What cpu and cooling system do you have?
