1900 is what we run here. And that's a graphics card, not a video card. Video cards are made by AJA and BlackMagic for Color and of those, I would recommend AJA.

I wonder which one is better though, the ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT or the X1900XT. In the Apple store page, it says that the 1900 has 512 mb and goes for $399 and the 2600 has 256 mb and goes for $149. I use the X1900, it's a good card, but it tends to overheat and the fan gets noisy, it works great in Color though.

[Dean Sensui]"The X1900 would speed up rendering as well, correct?
Right now my dual 2.5 GHz G5 has a Radeon 9600 XT."
That's the theory, but right now Color is rendering very very slowly. More slowly than when it was Final Touch. A 22 minute episode takes up to 6 hours to render. Used to take 2 hour max when it was Final Touch.
