DaVinci, Premiere Pro and the Nvidia GT 120 and the quadro 4000

[Jose Arce]

Well thanks.

Now I need to find the 470 and try to arm a Y split.

Or if I lucky enough buy other quadro 4000, but for the price I going to the first option, My only fear is not fried my motherboard.

I have a slightly used 470 from Dave P. if you are interested?

What i did i took 3 cables and made one of those Y.

1 you use as you do now but second and third i soldered from the middle to be Y.
So cables 2 and 3 i did cut in the middle and got rid of one start point of cable.
Then i soldered start point of the cable (motherboard side) with two end points.

If you know how to solder it takes you 10 minutes.

For me it was fastest and neatest option as final setup was relatively clean, no loose
cable endings etc.

Colin, how much are you asking for the 470?
have you found another configuration that works better fot Davinci/adobe GPU functionality?

Hey Diego,

I am asking $300 for the 470 Dave P flashed for mac card. I have not tried to utilize the GPU accelerated stuff with the Adobe CS suite – definitely hope in CS6 it will just see my GPU only card even though monitors are not attached to it!
