Hi guys,
I'm building myself a maschine for video editing. I'm also on budget.
Mainly I'll work with Avid Media Composer.
Currently my set will be:
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 2.83 Hz
Asus P5Q P45
4 x A-DATA 2GB DDR2 800
2 x 320GB, WD3200AAKS (system @ raid1)
2 x 640GB, WD6400AAKS (media @ raid1)
320GB, WD3200AAKS (scratch)
2 x 750GB WD7500AACS (media @ raid1)
ASUS DRW-2014L1T
CHIEFTEC PSU ATX 750W
COMPUCASE 6A21BS-UG
Zalman CASE FAN 120
BenQ FP241
UPS (not decided yet which one)
Windows Vista 64bit
As you've noticed I'm missing graphic card here. Currently I'm trying to choose between two options:
- PNY Electronics QUADRO FX 1700 512MB DDR2 128B
- Club3D HD 4870 (RV770XT) 512MB
So my question is wich one will you guys prefer. I'm going slightly crazy in the net comparing these two, that now I just need help.
According to my budget I'll have to pick Club 3D card. But if you say that Quadro is so much better that it is worth paying almost double for this, then I just have to get this money from somewhere...
Thanks in advance!
Oh and apologises if my english isn't perfect as it isn't my native language...
