Topic: VIDEO CARD RANKING LIST FOR VIDEO MIXING - Page: 2

This part of topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information

Geforce 5500 does work, (The dual monitor version) just make sure to have a fast CPU to back it up. (2.4 ghz and up) Don't do too much and it won't choke.

You should put all the Quadro and FireGL cards on your list. I just bought a laptop with a Quadro 1500m video card. Its supposed to be equivalent to a Geforce 7900, but I had to do that investigating myself. It would help if these two models of video cards were on your list.

Quadro videocards are made to be on the business market and not intented to do the the video manage of the 7900 that are made for games.

Usually if the videocard rate good for videogames, will be ok for video mixing. Quadro is not the videocard to go, but you can check yourself.

Good Luck!

Yeah I heard that Quadro is not good for games... but I also heard that the better Quadros can usually game fine.

For what its worth... I have been running VDJ for a week on my Quadro 1500M with 512MB dedicated video ram. Runs very well.

I went with a business class laptop because I needed some things that weren't available for personal laptops (like a dedicated docking station... ability to buy from my corporate rep who only sells certain brands... etc).

And if it means anything... the Quadro 1500M gives me a 5.9 rating Vista graphics score. Pretty damm high.

Hell... I didn't even know the scores went past 5. LOL

Actually my buddy read today that any score above 6.0 is not documented. meaning there isn't much hardware out right now that will push the scores past 6. it may go up to 100 for all we know. but right now there isn't much that can go past 6. hell ill be interested to hear what other users on here run for video and what their score in vista is. on my vista test pc that has a 7600gt my score was 4.9 I believe.

how does this card stack up?Yes I know it's only PCI. But the riser I have for my rackmount case does not have a PCI express riser only PCI is available.http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2563226&CatId=1603there is another one avail as wellhttp://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2802675&CatId=1603looks like the same thing with different accesories



that card is an x1300 which I believe is rated on the first page. its a middle of the road card. not blazing speed. but not bad either.

its true in the windows world the software is more advanced than the hardware currently and its having to catch up

Agp is just ahead of PCI, but slower than PCI express. I have a Nvidia fx5500 for my home pc, with a pci slot.
I don't want to get a new home video card until they come down on the price of the 8800. At that point, I'll need a new build, since mine is about 4 years old now.

I have a Dell Latitude D620, and even after re-rendering the videos in sony vegas, which helps, it's still not stable enough to take out in the club. I suspect I have a lower end video card, and I know my computer is a business model... my question is this... is there ANY solution short of buying a another computer to make this work? can any of these cards suggested be upgraded into my computer? Can I get some sort of external video card? (that might be a dumb question). I really want to make this work... I just got this computer as a gift but I really want to make the video mixing work... thanks in advance.
