    Posted by Robyn Rhodes on January 7, 2008 at 9:50 pm

    Hi All,

    I have been working primarily in SD and will soon be working exclusively in HD formats. I’m looking for advice on working in HD in AE.

    I’ll be on an Intel Mac Pro 8 Core with 16 gigs of RAM NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 512MB,

    Thanks a bunch,

    r

    I’m only half the thing I say I am, the other half are me.

    Is the Quadro card just for AE, or are you getting it mainly for 3D apps/Color or similar?

    It’s just that AE will not really benefit in anything above a low/mid-range GFX card from what I hear.

    I’m not paying for it, for one. Two I am planning on getting into C4D.

    thx for the tip!

    Great Machine, that’ll do the job.
    only 2 tips:
    -Get a fast Raid.
    -Work with proxy’s if you use uncompressed sources.

    have fun !

    cya,

    Your boss sounds ace 😉 I’m struggling to just get a new dual proc and more RAM out of mine! I’d love to drop a grand on a GFX card just like that…

    Have fun and let me know if you have any jobs going!
