I'm looking to get a new ATI video card to do 3D rendering and video editing. I think the obvious answer would be an ATI FirePro. I'm looking at the stats of the ATI FirePro v5700 and ATI Radeon HD 4890.

Here are the stats of each:

ATI Radeon HD 4890

I think I'm going to go with the ATI FirePro but I just want some other opinions. Thanks!
