    generally speaking, someone has tested some components works best than others with AE?im buildin up my new WS(my 5 years old one was an amd 900mhz cpu /1gbb ram /50gb scsi HD..)and spending money,so i would avoid any waste of money(im sure everyone of you understand me).

    At this point, video cards do almost nothing in AE. They help with the 3D view when you have it set to open GL, but any decent card should do fine.
