New build. Need help with choosing GPU

New system is built around:
i7 5960x
32gb ram
240gb ssd for cache (AE and PremierePro)
2 x 1tr hdd's in RAID 0
3tr hdd for storage
I'm trying to decide what GPU to get. My budget is $400. GTX 970 seems like a good choice but I don't know if there is really any performance difference between 970 and cheaper nVidia GPU's, as AE and Premiere are mostly CPU powered.
It's worth mentioning that I'm going to buy Element 3D v2 for AE as well.
Any advice would be highly appreciated.

No AME uses the GPU for the same processes that Premiere does which includes scaling, interpolation, and some FX. Scaling and interpolation are often very intensive processing tasks so using the GPU for those allows the CPU to focus on decoding and encoding which saves significant time on render/export. If you render the Project via AE's render queue then no GPU acceleration will be used. If you render via AME then yes the GPU acceleration would be used to some extent. I normally suggest people link AE back to Premiere if they have to link and then export from Premiere. The better way is to export from AE as finished and import the finished into Premiere and replace the comp area. The performance with AE linked to Premiere is far more limiting that AE render directly.

New builder, need help with motherboard.

This is my setup.
I bought all parts from amazon.
Sentey® Bx1-4237 V2.2 W atx case
EVGA SuperNOVA 750 80PLUS B2 Bronze Certified
MSI ATX DDR3 2600 LGA 1150 Motherboards Z97 GAMING 5
Intel Core i7-4790K Processor (8M Cache, up to 4.40 GHz) (BX80646I74790K)
G.Skrill ram stick
970 GTX Geforce EVGA
The issue I'm having is the computer would power on. fans running, display working on the case.
Graphic card is running it's fan. but my screen won't turn on or display. Before posting this thread. I followed the 12 steps on how to solve the "Display not turning on thread".
Some extra things I've try, removing CMOS for 30sec. Removing HDD and and starting it up. Still no screen.
Some extra information.
I put my computer case on a wooden table, the ground is wooden tiles. While plugging in everything following the motherboard manual. Then I proceed to put in my Graphic card 970 GTX into PCI slot 2. Place the power supply in, hooked up all the cord to every fan. Then I hooked up my sata cable to my harddrive.
I start the computer and it was running so I thought YES IT WORKS. though...all it does is stay powered on. after a solid 30sec though the Graphic card fans start slowing down to a complete stop. Then I notice a button on my computer case that said sound. I turn it on. Then I restart the computer then I hear 9 short beeps. So like quick 3 - beeps, 2-3 sec pause, 3 beeps, 2-3 sec pause, 3 beeps. so 9 short beeps in a interval. I really want to computer working.
I've also read that the CPU I have isn't compitable with the motherboard on the support site for the msi motherboard. Though I've read many reviews of people using the same cpu and having no issue with the motherboard. Lastly I look up those beep code 9 beeps has to do with bad bios checksum basically bad motherboard? though it said it was the code for Award Motherboard which I don't know if mine is it. So any help would be great.
I spent all my paycheck money on it this month e.e So I really want to figure out whats wrong and fix it so I have a computer to use.
TLDR I think my motherboard is bad but how can I be sure? Should I send it back to amazon. it's gonna take a while e.e

its not you BIOS! yours will have 1.7 installed on your board!
try without the GPU in the computer (take the gtx 970 out) use the onboard video outputs on the motherboard to see if it is outputting any graphics at all there?
I've just tried this took out my gtx plug in my monitor into the VGA slot. I still hear the beep sequence. 3 shorts beep every 3 sec, then after the 9th beep it stop. The fan just keep running.

Need help with choosing a PSU

hey guys,
i need some help with choosing a right PSU for my gaming rig. i plan on doing some overclocking for the first time, and from what i understand the regular no name PSU that came with my case just won't be enough. so here is what i'm currently looking at:
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=17-103-910&depa=1
my question is, is this a good PSU? it's going for roughly $100 and i'm willing to pay around that much. can someone tell me if this is a good choice, or any other recommendations? thanks in advance!
btw, my specs are below in my sig...

Your friend is right. the iPod cannot be used to update iTunes. I had the same problem about a year ago, and I just transferred each song using my jumpdrive. It's painstakingly boring, but it will work without wiping anything clean.

Hard Drive Crash - need help with choosing new drive and installation

My hard drive seems to have crashed. My computer froze, and when I tried to reboot, it got stuck at the startup screen. I started from the system CD, ran the disk repair utility, and it said it could not repair the disk. I ran Tech Tool Pro and it could not repair the disk. I tried to start up in Target disk mode while connected to my older G4 iMac (that I'm using now as my backup), and the disk would not mount. So I need some expert advice - I am assuming the hard drive is toast. I wish I could at least mount it in target disk mode to transfer files, but I haven't been able to do that. I was going to take it in for repair (or possibly buy a new computer), but after reading some of the posts here, I am thinking I could just replace the internal hard drive with a 3.5" SATA drive.
What I need to know is am I correct about this? And is this the right kind of drive for my iMac? Are there any specifications I need to be aware of when ordering a new drive? I downloaded the manual explaining how to replace the drive and it looks doable. I would appreciate any guidance as to choosing the new drive (specific brand names/models would be great), installing the drive, and tips for formatting, etc. Thanks in advance for your help!

Welcome to Discussions - any 3 1/2" SATA drive will be fine, go to [macsales.com] or [smalldog.com] or [newegg.com] and choose whichever drive fits your wallet. Most of them are reliable, I have heard of problems with Seagate and Hitachi, but there are always some failures with any brand. Make sure to get a good warranty.Instructions will come with the drive, but you can download them from [Apple|http://www.apple.com/support/manuals/imac> as well.

Cleaning up my new Thinkpad need help with what to Uninstall

So I finally got my new thinkpad T520 set up with Windows 7 and I currently have all the prepackaged Lenovo Programs and thinkvantage tools installed. I am trying to optimize my system right now and I am wondering which programs I should keep and which I should delete.
I already have Revo uninstaller, CCleaner, and ESET NOD32 smart security antivirus so I already have some good utilities to clean my system.
Basically if anyone could help me determine which lenovo programs to keep and which to uninstall I would be very greatful. I dont need this computer to be a screamer, but I would like a stable computer that is as fast as possible.
Thanks

from your list, i don't use the following:
Screen reading optimizer
Simple tap
Solution Center
AutoLock
Communications utility
truthfully, Lenovo's factory load is lighter than most every other OEM load i've worked with.
if you want to further optimize your machine's running state, you should have a look at the blackviper site to dig through your running Windows services. even if you choose not to modify anything, it's quite educational. http://www.blackviper.com/
you can also go through your system's start-up programs and what-not. apps like acrobat reader install update checkers that load at every boot and run in the background. i like a Microsoft tool named Autoruns for this task. it's part of the Sysinternals suite. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-US/sysinternals

New user needs help with syncing

I have a new Curve. I use Comcast mail (POP3). I have installed Desktop Manager on my PC. I am not using an Enterprise server, nor an Exchange server. I would like to be able to receive, read, and delete using either device and have any changes reflected in the other.
From what I've read, it appears that you can only do that if you're using an Enterprise server or if you have an Exchange server and you install Redirector. Is that true? Or can my set up work?

POP3 email does not require a BES connection.
However you do need to make sure you are paying the service fee to the carrier for a BIS data plan.

New user needs help with HD choices

I just found this forum and it looks like something I am going to enjoy. I have Premiere Pro CS 5.0 and use it to process AVCHD video. My hardware is made up of Asus P9X79 Pro, i7 3930k, 16 GB memory, and GTX 470 vid card. I also have an SSD as my main boot drive - it is an OCZ Revodrive.
I would like help in setting up my hard drives for the Adobe software, so have listed my storage drives along with current usage and ATTO benchmark results:
Drive 0 - Revodrive - ATTO = 800 - Used for Win 7 -64 Pro and Adobe software
Drive 1 - WD Black 2TB - ATTO = 140 - Used for MTS file storage
Drive 2 - WD Black 2TB - ATTO = 140 - Used for Scratch Files
Drive 3 - Samsung 1TB - ATTO = 60 - Used for Finished files (Encore files and for saving MP4 files for web upload)
Drive 4 - WD Black 1TB - ATTO = 120 - Used for backup
Drive 5&6 - 2 each Hitachi 750GB in Raid - ATTO = 180 - Used for backup (Drives are attached to Marvel Raid port on Motherboard)
I realize that drive #3 is the slowest drive and should probably be used for other things. I am open to suggestions.

Happy New Year and wecome to the forum!
Sounds like a strong system, and it should be just fine for AVCHD video.
Suggest:
Boot / OS / programs - Revodrive is fine; you can also assign media cache and media cache DB (CS5 setting) to this drive
Data drive - create a RAID 0 array from your current drives 1 and 2 - use this for projects and media, and pretty much whatever other data needs you have for your PC
scratch / output drive - use for current matching 5 & 6 Hitachi's in RAID 0 for scratc and render outputs
all others - use 3 & 4 for backups
You should probably run PPBM5 and report the 4 "scores" to the PPBM5 site and also back here to get a reality check that everything is configured and working properly for your system.

New user: Need help with my phone. iSync on a G3 with OSX 10.3.9

Hi guys, this is my first post on this forum, so take it easy on me. LOL I just got a Sony Ericsson W810. I found out that I need to get iSync. Aparently iSync 2.2 is the program I need. Is this available for my version of OSX? I'm not sure if a new version of OSX is compatible with my G3. Any help? Much appreciated. Thanks.

Welcome to Apple Discusssion.
iSync 1.5 is the version which shipped with and works with Mac OS X releases prior to 10.4 - iSync 2 and later packages are not compatible with Mac OS X 10.3.9 or any release of the OS. With Mac OS X 10.4 and iSync 2, came a completely new synchronization technology: the Sync Services framework.
You can find out what, if any, options exist for SONY Ericsson users here, at Julian Wright's excellent site:

New and need help with replace harddrive M45-s265

Hello,
I am not sure were to post this had a hard time trying to find were to post this message.
(I also upgraded to 2g memory with out a problem)
I replaced the board and get a message as if it has none
part of message
PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable
PXE-MOF: Exiting PXE ROM
The new board is from newegg and is a western digital wd scorpio ATA 250 gb wd2500beve-00wzto, I was told this is what i needed.
The key in and pins are the same as old board.
Thank you so much for any help I can get

That's the correct drive. What is your question? To do the replacement, you flip the unit over, remove the hard drive cover, slip the drive out, remove the 'caddy' and put it on the new drive, slide the new drive back in, replace the cover and boot from your recovery disks to restore the original disk image.

I am really new and need help with internet

Hi. I am really excited about the new MACS and want one really bad. First, I need to know what I would need to get for wireless internet. Next, are Macs compatible for Internet like MSN?
iBookG4 Windows XP I want to get an iBookG4

I have a PowerBook G4 17 with a gig of ram that I absolutely couldn't live without. I use a Verizon aircard for internet access, and it's proven to be about 90% as fast as a high speed cable connection. I routinely send pics up to 3M in size with no problem. The only thing I have found that it really doesn't do very well is downloading software. And the Verizon card is really affordable--I have an unlimited plan that doesn't hurt each month at all. Hope this helps.
