gtx580 or nvidia quadro 2000 for after effects?

For AE native plugins and AE workings in general you will not notice any difference with any of those cards since AE does not use the GPU for faster renders/processing. However, if you use any of the new generation 3d plugins for AE, like ShapeShifter AE or FreeForm Pro, a good graphics card will make a difference. Also, if you use Premiere Pro, more Cuda cores will give you faster results. So it’s a matter of what you need. If you just use AE and none of the 3d plugins or Premiere, invest in more RAM and get a cheaper card. If not, the gtx580 looks like a better choice.

thnx a lot of. i work some times with premier. but often i work with after effects. and some times i work with 3ds max for tracking camera data from boujou to max. so i buy a cheaper card or gtx580 or nvidia quadro 2000?
my ram 8gb is enough or buy 16gb(4*4).

ok nice. so i will buy gtx580 and corsaire 16gig 1600 (4*4)

is corsaire brand suitable?

if i am sensitive. because graphic cart and cpu and MB and all of pc is very more expensive than real cost in my country. gtx580 in my country is 820$
cpu core i7 2600k is 390$ and oll af them is very expensive

thnx
