    Posted by Vince Gaffney on December 24, 2006 at 12:17 am

    i’m looking at upgrading from my power mac dual 2.7 / decklink system to a mac pro dual 3.0 with a kona LHe. i’d like to upgrade the stock card but wonder which is the best reasonable alternative. i work primarily in uncompressed SD from downconverted HD and HDV. i do all my effects and graphics in combustion.

    thanks in advance for the suggestions.

    When purchasing the 3.0 MacPro, you can order it with the ATI Radeon X1900 or add it into the system for $350 extra. Check out http://www.barefeats.com for more information about that ATI card.

    That’s the card we’re running and it’s working out very well.

    ATI has a 15% off sale now for purchases over $149.99. Free shipping too. You may have to install it yourself but you can keep the stock card for?

    more info.
