Re: graphic cards for premiere pro

Recently bought a GTX680 for my mac pro.

Latest version of Mac OS supports it natively (no drivers needed) but you won't get a bootscreen (if you get the flashed 5xx series for macvidcards you can get the boot screen).

Downloaded CUDA driver from Nvidia

Edited 2 text files (took 10 seconds total) to add the card name to supported cards list.

Boom: full CUDA support on Premiere and AE.

The 500 series is probably the most cost effective way and in fact I've seen some data that they're even faster than the 600, but 600 more power efficient so I bought before I researched that. Either way you don't need the Quadra4000 and will be faster than ATI.
