    Hey guys,
    Need help deciding on a new video card. I presently have an Nvidia 7300gt card. I would like to upgrade to a newer card. My applications will include Autocad 2008, Adobe Premiere 6.5, and hardly any gaming. I am looking something to really perform on video editing. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. My system is as follows: Abit KN9 Ultra Motherboard, 2gb OCZ Memory, Enermax 485 watt power supply, lite on DVD Burner, and AMD 4600+ processor. THanks in advance

    generally you would want to go with a professional video card for editing and CAD.

    Look at the Quadro Family of cards and that will be a HUGE improvement on what you currently have.

    However, if you play games and such, give us a budget and we can make some recommendations as workstation cards are not meant to play games.
