Wasn't sure if I should post this in the new build or gpu section of the forums, so sorry if I am mistaken.
So after doing some research on pc components, I've narrowed down the list of components to the following:
CPU + MOBO: Phenom II x4 955 + Gigabyte GA-890GPA-UD3H 890GX (IGP motherboard) $265
Case +PSU : Lian Li Lancool PC-K62 Black + XFX P1-650X-CAG9 650w $130
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws DDR3 1600 F3128-CL7D-4GBRM $105
Total comes out to roughly $500 after shipping and rebates and gift card.
I'm pretty sure all of the above is compatible, but feel free to point anything out, or if there is a better deal on any of the components.
My question is basically whether it would be worth it to spend $200 on a GTX 460 in order to accelerate Adobe Premiere Pro CS5. After googling around, it seems like the GeForce cards accelerate video editing with its CUDA capability. I am wondering if anybody can confirm if this is the case, or if I should same some money and get a 5770 and possibly crossfire later. Thanks.
