  Graphic card dilemma

  Posted by Sam Rossetti on December 12, 2009 at 1:26 pm

  Hello,

  i hope someone of this community can help me with a small problem,

  i have a Mac Pro 8 core with 2 ATI Radeon HD 2600 that i use mainly for Motion, FCP and some 3D modeling/rendering. One of the graphic cards went broken today and i am a bit lost with the options opened to me, should i :

  – get a new Radeon 2600 (which is outdated) ?
  – get a newer card (but will it works along with the older card – i was thinking about the Radeon HD 4870) ?
  – get two newer cards and throw away the 2600 (which still works…) ?

  Thank you for your inputs/advices 🙂
