  • Video Card Recommendations…

    Posted by Evan Fitzer on August 15, 2011 at 6:40 pm

    Hello:
    I’m currently running FCS 2 on my home system, as I wasn’t anticipating Apple yanking FCS 3 off the market like that. Regardless, I’d really like to add Motion 5, and secondarily Compressor and FCP X in order to start checking them out. I’m pretty sure that before I do though, I’ve got to upgrade the video card in my aging Mac Pro. Here is my current computer configuration, can any of you recommend the best new card that I should be using with the latest software.

    Hardware Overview:
    Model Name: Mac Pro
    Model Identifier: MacPro1,1
    Processor Name: Dual-Core Intel Xeon
    Processor Speed: 2.66 GHz
    Number Of Processors: 2
    Total Number Of Cores: 4
    L2 Cache (per processor): 4 MB

    ATI Radeon X1900 XT:
    Chipset Model: ATY,RadeonX1900
    Type: GPU
    Bus: PCIe
    Slot: Slot-1
    PCIe Lane Width: x16
    VRAM (Total): 512 MB

    Thanks,
