PC for prem CS5? GTX 480, which brand? Shuttle?

Hi
I'm trying to decide for a graphics card and PX-box for premiere CS5.
I'm considering bying the GTX 480
There are some different makers of that card:
MSI, Gainward, ASUS, EVGA
Any suggestions why I should select one manufacturer before the other?
I see EVGA has some superclocked versions.... any thoughts about those?
I'm also considering buying the Shuttle SX58J3 SFF computer, support up to 16GB memory, LGA1366 Socket, Intel X58 Express, up to 4 SATA-300 disks.
Reason for this choice is that I want to be able to take the PC with me without to much hassle.
This comes standard with a 500W PS, but I belive I should be able to put in another more powerful PS... e.g. a 600W one.
Or is this a bad choice?
I7 CPU:
2.8 GHz or 3.2 GHz ?
Any suggestions on which CPU and number of cores, will I notice that much difference between 2.8 and 3.2?
I'm to edit footage from Canon 5D MK II.

As for your original post, Shuttle is out of the question - buy a nice asus MB - they will all be pretty much the same for the i7.
I took an HP 180 (I7 975 8 thread quad duo core proc, put 24 GB of ram in it (at hp's expense) then yanked out their GTX-200 that came stock and put a GTX-480 from EVGA.
The GTX480 uses ALOT of power.  When I say ALOT I mean 3 ea SLI cables - not one or two like most cards.  So my 4xsli corsair 850W ps BARELY got ONE GTX 480 running in this system, but it is running very stable, and premiere pro plus media converter just rip through avchd like nobody's business (my other PC estimated a week to transcode a couple of hours of avchd video from a canon hfs-10 camera shot at 24mbps 1080x1920.  It was a quad core 2.83 Ghz system with an SLI card) - I just gave my new machine that task, the lights dimmed in the room, and in 30 min it was finished.
Cramming all the nice wire loomed power cables from the 850W p/s wasn't easy but they did finally fit and all the covers went on, plus I have room internally for a second 2TB hitachi drive, and 2 ea external (oh thank you) SATA plugs.
I just got this card in here and fired the puppy up, so now its time to make sure all the drivers are proper, but it seems to be.  I think the lesson I learned after having to rip out HP's little chinese power supply is GO BIG on the power supply - and if you are even thinking of SLI, go TWICE as big.  The 850W supply runs one GTX480 card, one disc drive, and an i7/975+24GB ram and a video recorder card.  The air comming out the back is HOT - as in heater hot.
The second lesson I learned is get a big case!  This tiny HP case is cute and all that but it lacks the room inside for much internal hardware.  It's a midsize tower case - If I were doing it from scratch I'd buy a fullsize tower case.
So why didn't I?  I got a great deal on the 24GB of ram from HP and the 1GHZ pricessor.  I paid less for a maxed out system than I could buy the ram and the processor for due to discounts.  Unfortunately HP never thought anyone would stuff a corsair 850 and GTX 480 inside where their itty bitty stuff once was.
If you have a big enough case (floor standing full height) and a big enough power supply (6 SLI) 1500 W you could probably make a decent SLI system with 2 GTX480 pcbs (you realize thats 1024 cuda cores, ,right?)
Think Big and you won't be using drive bays to stuff power cables into  so you can get the lid on the system.  As others have said, asus, bfg, evga all make good equipment.  I found a sweet deal on the evga which is the only reason I went that direction.  Sweet deals change in one week, so be sure to buy what you want when the price dips.  If you are planning a real SLI system, buy BOTH cards form the same MFGR at the same time

  • GTX 670, which brand???

    hello,
    after reading many forums and reviews. Depsues hesitating between 650-660-660ti-670. I'd go with the GTX 670, it also has the option of 3D rendering. I will work with 3D in AE, but render time, This will go faster. It depends on the price difference 660TI with the 670 is around 40-50 €.  I hope that I will pay extra worth.
    Which brand is the best option?
    PC:
    3930k
    Asus P9x79 Pro-Deluxe-Ws- Rampage IV extreme ( still do not know)
    32GB
    650W
    Sorry for my english.
    Stefan
    Thanks

    With that PSU, you don't have many choices. Only the GTX 650 may work somewhat and that is already putting a heavy burden on the PSU, all the rest take too muuch power, or you need to get a much better PSU (850W gold+ label), which would be my approach and then opt for the GTX 670/4G.

  • Very disappointed with replacement quality for my MSI GTX 480 Lightning

    Hello,
    Here is my original thread
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=154517.0
    I sent my MSI GTX 480 Lightning last week and I received a RMA replacement today with different serial #.
    I did noticed that RMA dept. replaced the TIM before they shipped. I tried them with default clock to test the stability and it was very unstable.
    My fan would go up to 100% and it would give me close to 90c temperature. My previous gtx 480 lightning would never go above mid 70c with 100% fan.
    I set everything to default and played my favorites games and games was chappy like FPS would go up and down randomly. I tried Nvidia driver 285.62 and 290.36 beta, but both would behave same.
    I even tried with other bio switch, but samething. I also noticed that new serial # was also manufactured in May 2011 (My previous gtx 480 lightning was also manufactured in May 2011) and they both comes with 701mhz core clock instead of 750mhz core clock. I am hugely disappointed. I doubt RMA dept tested this card before they sent out. Do I need to pay a shipping again for a RMA?
    I currently have two MSI video cards (gtx 480 lightning and R6850 cyclone PE/OC), but they both having problem and I am forced to use ati 5770 in 2560 x 1600 resolutions :(
    My spec:
    i7 920 D0 4Ghz
    Asus Rampage III Gene (latest bio)
    MSI gtx 480 lightning + MSI R6850 Cyclone PE/OC + sapphire 5770
    Corsair F60 SSD, Crucial M4 64 SSD, Samsung 1TB 7200rpm
    Asus Xonar ST PCI sound card
    Window 7 Ultimate 64bit
    Seasonic X750 Gold PSU

    I requested another RMA and I really hope I get a working one back.
    I really don't want to deal with 3rd RMA and shpping cost. I know bad replacement can happen to any other company, so I am going to keep buying more MSI GPUs.

  • Which NVIDIA graphics card for CS4 & CS5.5 Premiere?

    I just upgraded to CS5.5 Production Premium but I'm still using XP 32bit. That means I had to load the CS4 version of Premiere and After Effects. Sooner or later I'll upgrade to 64bit Win but in the mean time which graphics card will give me the best bang for the buck and still be useful for CS5.5 later? Money isn't an issue, I just don't want to pay for something and not benefit from it. What's worse is Adobe doesn't even list cards newer than the 8800 and Quadro FX for CS4! Weren't GTX cards available before CS5 came out? Do I need to update a file in CS4 apps to make them accept cards for GPU processing?
    Adobe and NVIDIA keep pushing the Quadro cards but when you look at the benchmarks it looks like the GTX cards do just as well. I will use the system for gaming sometimes so DX11 is a must. I have a watercooled i7 920 OC @ 4.0GHz and very stable, temps never go above 60C under full load. I have 6GB RAM and use a memory handler to access the RAM over what XP can use, and use it for virtual mem and caches etc. But my current graphics card is a slightly OC'd 9800GT w/512MB. My system doesn't like to scrub video that isn't rendered unless it's at lower resolutions and obviously I'd like rendering to be as fast as possible.
    Looking around I see:
    GTX560-TI @ $240
    GTX570 @ $300
    GTX480 @ $300
    GTX570 @ $300
    GTX580 @ $460
    Quadro 4000 @ $550
    Quadro 5000 @ $1200
    So what's the secret? Where's the sweet spot?
    TIA

    The "secret" to MPE bliss is to get the video card AND Win7 64bit AND load your CS5.5. I really don't think that the video card would help much running CS4 on 32bit. Regarding which card, I'd say the sweet spot since you want to game and use CS5.5 would be to go with a GTX 480 with two or three fans (single fan reference design is too LOUD). Also, if you are not going to Win7 right away, delay your purchase and the next GEN of NVidia will be closer or out and you may either want one of the new smaller die-size cards or you could benefit form lower prices on what's available today.

    So you're saying on Win32 and CS4 Pr, Ae, AME, the graphics card doesn't matter at all? That I won't see any improvement over my 512MB 9800GT?
    If I was to narrow it down even farther, the most important aspect would be in the "preview" performance. I can always render when I'm not using the system but sometimes the preview windows hang while working on a project. The problem worsens as the resolution increases or as the project gets more complicated. I had the same problem with PP1.5 which is why I decided to bite the bullet and upgrade to see if a newer version would help.
    Cooling isn't an issue as long as a water block is available for my next card. I've read the 570 & 580 may be the same reference layout and use the same coolers, I'm still looking into that. I know I can liquid cool the 480, 560TI, 580. I have no idea about the Quadro's, I've never seen a block for those.
    I'd like to go to Win64 but other software etc is keeping me from getting there soon. I'm looking into dual booting but have read about lots of problems with folder/file sharing issues when going from XP to Win7. I keep all files/projects on a seperate drive and some are shared over a network. If MS hasn't solved the sharing issues I'm forced to stick with XP. I have too many files that need read/write access and Win7 is stated to set all shares to read only. I'm still researching if it's been resolved.
    So it's important to know if anything will help CS4 because as stated above, it'll make more sence to wait for the next gen cards for use in CS5.5.
    The bottom line is, I built this system from the ground up just a few years ago before Win64 was so popular. I used the very best components (the 9800GT is actually the lowest componet I bought because gaming wasn't that important at the time). I'm running steady overclocked @ 4.0 and boot from an SSD drive. The data drives are 7200RPM and I bought the fastest RAM I could at the time. Obviously people were editing happily a few years ago on equipment inferior to mine. What's the catch? What am I missing to run smoothly on Win32? I'm assuming it's the graphics card because it's the only place I skimped. Maybe I have a software conflict keeping any version of Pr from working smoothly.
    Being 3 gens behind, and mediocre at that, I thought the card might be a good place to start.

  • GTX 480's on sale at Dell for $365 (thru June 10th)

    Folks,
    Well, maybe I can be of help myself. I'm new 'round here and hope my listing a hardware deal in this forum isn't a faux pas. I wanted as many PPro CS5 users as possible to see it here in this forum. For all I know, listing deals anywhere on this Adobe site is a no-no - so, sorry if I'm wrong in this!
    I just bought a GTX 480 for $364 plus tax at Dell.... EVGA model 015-P3-1480-AR.
    The sale has not fully completed as I type this, but shows as being far enough along in my PayPal account to have me think it is legit, plus I've gotten a confirmation email from Dell. All that might trip it up now is Dell being out-of-stock come shipping time.
    I do not have an account or other special treatment from Dell. I think anyone can get in on this.
    A coupon code for 30% off computer accessories makes it happen. The code is supposed to be good through June 10th. I doubt the stock will last that long. There are a number of exclusions, including monitors, but the code still covers quite a bit.
    Code: HHM4QNZ3303N1Z
    I found this info at "Slickdeals.net". Go to their website and hunt down the deal through a search. I'd link to it, but can't figure out how and wanted to get this up fast.
    Good luck!
    Joel E.

    That's a very good price, considering Newegg is about $500

  • MPE layer bug(s) - GTX 480 and CS5 trial

    Hi All,
    Due to some strange MPE-PPro behaviour, I am now having some last minute doubts about whether to jump up to a full version of the production suite - or perhaps wait for a .1 patch.
    Please advise if any of you can spot where the cause of these problems might lie...
    These are fairly easy-to-repeat MPE-related bugs in the trial version of PPro CS5, so far I have found issues both with scaling and when duplicating clips to new layers.
    Current hardware is as follows (will be looking for a new i7-920/X58 mobo combo if CS5 is purchased)
    Mobo- Asus Striker Extreme
    CPU - QX6700 C2Q@ 2.66Hz
    RAM 4G
    Win7 Pro x64
    So for testing purposes, I have "enabled" MPE using a GTX 480 and all seems fine for basic cuts-only or opacity fades on multiple layers. The bugs I have found seem to be related to adding more than 2 effects (even on just a few short clips...)
    Scenario 1:
    1) DV clip on layer 1, second DV clip on layer 2 scaled to 25% and positioned top left corner. Yellow line - playback behaviour is OK so far.
    2) With MPE enabled, if I add some fast CC to layer 2 clip then the footage plays back as though scaling is reset to 100% (although the slider still shows 25%)
    3) Switch from MPE to SW preview and the clip correctly returns to 25% scale (still with CC applied). Switch back and the scaling is again lost.
    Scenario 2:
    1) DVCPRO 1080 25p clip on layer 1, duplicated to layer 2 with a gaussian blur and 15% opacity (creates a basic glow effect).  Yellow line - playback behaviour is OK so far. Repeat for a second clip on to layers 3&4 with a simple opacity fade-up at start on each, overlaying the last few secs of 1&2 for the length of the fade.
    2) With MPE enabled, layers 3&4 only show when the layer 1&2 clip has reached the out point, ie the fade up on layer3&4 is "ignored" and the second clip only cuts in when the first clip has reached the out point. All the time with a Yellow line.
    3) Switch from MPE to SW preview and everything works as it should (after preview render is generated of course).
    So my questions are, can anyone with a GTX 285 or (certified) Quadro repeat either of these bugs? Am I better to wait until the GTX 480 is officially certified in a few months (possibly including a patch) or is there another cause elsewhere in my current hardware?
    MPE is really nice (in theory at least) but it worries me that it fails to calculate opacity occlusion and scaling correctly for such relatively simple sequences.
    Any suggestions/opinions/comments welcome!
    Cheers,
    Dave.

    Hi Harm,
    I've created a fresh test project and recreated a timeline similar to scenaio 1 (sticking to DV to rule out demanding codec issues)...
    Here's the OK intial version of the timeline:
    LAYER4: PIP clip scaled to 25% pos. top left, no other effects just an opacity fade-in-out
    LAYER3: PIP clip scaled to 25% pos. top right, no other effects just an opacity fade-in-out
    LAYER2: PIP clip scaled to 25% pos. bottom right, no other effects just an opacity fade-in-out
    LAYER1: Simple clip no scaling full screen (backdrop), fast cc effect w/ default values
    Preview bar is yellow and play back is fine with MPE on.
    THEN, if I add any other MPE-enabled effect to any layer, the preview goes red and the top-most layer disappears from the preview monitor!
    The rendered preview also omits layer 4, as soon as I turn off MPE, the timeline returns to red and layer 4 pops right back on the monitor!
    Is this just a trial limitation of the MPE module, rather than restrict the 'extra' effect/layer to render-only you lose it altogether? This just seems a bit of a strange way to promote such an important feature, it certainly hasn't helped me decide on if/when to purchase, or perhaps it has?
    Any more thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Dave.

  • Quadro k4000 vs GTX 760. which one for AE

    I have 2 Computers and planning to mix them up together as possible. I built a PC with quadro k4000 last year because I was graduated as 3D animator and i plan to work as Animator, plus I also have another PC with GTX 760. and now I'm currently working as Video Editor. so here are my questions:
    - k4000 and gtx 760 which one would do better in AE and Pr ?
    - I read some articles said: "quadro and gtx can group up together in one PC". is it really possible ? because some people said yes and some people said no and some people said yes but wont work together blah blah. I really want to know about it, because right now I already have these 2 GPU. and if YES. can you show me how to do it?
    there are my both PC specs:
    CPU: core i7 3820 3.66hz
    RAM: 16GB
    SSD 128gb
    HDD 3TB
    MotherBoard: Asus P9X79 PRO
    VGA: asus GTX 760
    Another one is:
    CPU core i7-3930K 3.20GHz
    RAM: 32GB
    SSD: 256gb
    HDD: 3TB x 2
    MotherBoard:  ASRock X79 Extreme6
    VGA: quadro k4000
    Can somebody help me to build these 2 PC in just 1 PC as possible ?

    I have something similar that I just posted about - my system has both a GTX780 and a Quadro K4200 installed. Eric is right. They work, but the driver installation can be tricky.
    Mine is a new build and I am trying to learn how the two cards work together. I expected better performance. I don't understand why setting CUDA acceleration to only the GeForce, when NVidia allows for both CUDA GPUs. I tried every combination with no difference in results. So, I will be following your thread to see what happens.

  • AME CS5.5 Hanging at 75% & Drive Update for NVIDIA GeForce GTX-470

    Hello,
    I am having problems with AME CS5.5 hanging as well.  I was wondering if somone from Adobe can tell me if the latest Driver upgrade for my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470 card of 285.62 is safe/recomended for Adobe CS5.5 Premiere/AME/Encore/After Effects programs.  I do not want to cause any additional issues with my Adobe related issues.  My present driver is 280.26...Thanks, Steve

    I installed the update after creating a restore point.
    I guess it's safe, but the behavior is the same.  I still have the hanging issue.
    I hope that this bug gets fixed soon.,

  • What are the advantages of the new Quadro 4000 over the GTX 480 for Photoshop?

    I am a photoshop user trying to decide between the new Quadro 4000 and the GTX 480. 
    We are building a machine around an i7 970 processor with 12GB ram.
    I've read here and other places that the GTX specs generally out do the Quadro card. 
    But I also have read that there can be disadvantages to using a gamer card for editing graphics.
    I am trying to understand why the Quadro card is suggested for photoshop users by Nvidia.  Why do they have this line of card?
    I do notice the Quadro card has two of the newer Display Ports.
    I want to make sure I can:
    Run two monitors each with its own, separate, ICC profile.
    Maintain a 10 bit color workflow
    Can I do these things with with either card?  If I go for the GTX card, how gamer-centric is the driver software versus the driver software that comes with the Quadro 4000?
    Thank you,
    Plum Parlor

    The Geforce cards are faster than the current Quadro cards right now. If you do not have an application that the Quadro has a plugin for then the Geforce cards are normally the better choice and far less expensive. In your case the question revolves around the 10Bit color. Both the Displayport and HDMi 1.3 standard or newer support 10bit color. The problem is finding the HDMI Screen that supports the 1.3 standard and Deep color. That requires more research than the Displayport option. Obviously the new HP 30 inch supports 10bit color with the displayport. It really boils down to whether it's worth your time to spend the extra money for the Quadro versus researching a HDMI 1.3 Display with Deep Color support.

  • Is it possible to put the new nVidia GTX 480 in the Mac Pro

    I'm planning on creating the ultimate gaming machine, but also want the best operating system. So I have decided that my next computer will be the Mac Pro and will have the new nVidia GTX 480 (if it works). The Windows partition would be used for heavy gaming with DX 11 and PhysX technology. While on the OSX partition I could use the greatest operating system, to do general things like Movie Making, Picture Editing, Web Surfing, Emailing etc.
    So all in all, is it possible to install a GTX 480 on OSX? I know it'll work with the windows partition, but not sure about OSX. I'm also unsure about the hardware side of things, but that's why I'm asking!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks again,
    Mike

    If you don't need dual processor, PC with 980X Gulftown makes sense.
    Forget over clocking a Mac, but if you need dual processor, the Mac Pro makes sense but expect to pay. Otherwise, take a look at
    EVGA Classified SR-2 (Super Record 2) 270-WS-W555-A1
    http://www.evga.com/products/prodlist.asp?switch=5
    Apple has not had good Nvidia drivers. And right now there are two 6-pin, and you need 6 + 8 and stick with Windows 7 and ability to do SLI. I laugh when people talk about "windoz" (rude) being somehow less or 'inferior' having seen the best - and worst - of both (never got caught up in 95/98/NT/XP so spoiled by only knowing Vista/7). I still think 10.6 hasn't quite caught up to 7 in areas that really matter, like threading, multicore, efficient use of memory.
    Forget using more than one, Apple likes graphic cards that are low power, low end, and only supporting one high end card.
    The GTX 480 @ $499, and if Apple offered it, it would be $549 or more (Apple 'tax' for smaller market and having to do their own drivers). And it would be much later before optimized drivers (maybe next year this time at best).
    While you can go water and add custom fans and cooling, the Mac is much more of a "closed" box in many ways beyond RAM and hard drives and +very limited+ selection of graphics.
    That really is my honest assessment.
    The place where Mac Pro is easier, you can install 32-64GB RAM without trouble and not have to worry about compatibility or PSU issues. I'm always surprised by all the memory testing and supported and problems PC owners go through (I don't think Cruical Ballistix gets enough credit).
    DX11 will still take time. Adobe showed how GPGPU/CUDA could benefit, but Apple and Adobe apps have always tended to favor ATI which is just beginning to get into OpenCL technology ... and the 5000 series may find Nvidia Fermi, while it took longer, runs hot and power requirement, could be better poised down the road too.
    A single socket Mac Pro 3.3GHz or even stock (same as 920) will do the job you want.
    Apple Mac Pro Specials (refurb dept)
    http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals/mac/mac_pro
    Are a good selection and place to shop. My the time Gulftown + GTX480 and all the rest is out and ready could be more than a few months.

  • Please recommend best quad i7 & intel mb for PP cs5.5

    Please recommend best quad i7 & intel mb for PP cs5.5
    Looking for best bang for the buck. 6 sata drive connectors, usb3 also.
    doing mostly avchd. Utilizing software 2 drive raid0. Win 7 64bit. I usually convert my avchd footage to more editable formats before i edit them.

    Steve,
    I assume that you already have a single non-RAID OS disk in addition to the 2-disk aid0. If that's the case, I'd strongly recommend two additional disks and create a second aid0 array.
    If on the other hand the 2-disk aid0 are the only disks that you have (and used for absolutely everything including the OS and programs), then get at least three more disks: One single non-RAID disk for the OS and programs plus two identical disks and create a second aid0 array with that pair.
    With either of those configurations, if you are going to transcode AVCHD to a format with an intermediate codec, then you can get away with the "Budget" quad-core i5 system (however, I would change the 192-core GTX 550 Ti to a 336-core non-Ti GTX 560 since the prices for those two right now are closer together than the differences in performance between them). But if you're going to edit AVCHD directly in Premiere Pro CS5.5, you will need at least the "Economical" (i7-2600(K)) system in order to edit smoothly.
    Oh, I see that you are actually looking for an i7. In this case, then, unless you are willing to spend at least $1,000 just for the CPU and mobo, the only current choices would be in LGA 1155: the i7-2600, 2600K and 2700K. The non-K CPU is limited-overclockable (meaning that you'll get only 3.9GHz out of that CPU maximum) while the other two can be overclocked further (to 4.4GHz and up with most chips). The i7-3820 isn't on reseller shelves yet, but from what I read it should perform on a par with a slightly overclocked i7-2600K.
    For the motherboard, I'd recommend a Z68 board from Asus, MSI or Gigabyte. (Or, if you choose the i7-3820 when it begins shipping to resellers, your only feasible choices would be an X79 / LGA 2011 mobo from Asus or Intel since the X79 boards from Gigabyte suffer from quality issues with the VRMs used on those boards.) Keep in mind, however, that the lower-priced Z68 boards from the three brands are more difficult than pricier Z68 mobos to achieve a high stable overclock because the budget boards often lack manual CPU core voltage adjustments per se (they have only voltage offsets instead). Pricier Z68 mobos have fixed manual CPU voltage settings in addition to offsets.

  • Minimal performace improvement with GTX 480

    Just wanted to see if anyone was getting reasonable mercury acceleration with the nvidia GTX 480 and hack.  I notice that i get yellow bars even before i apply any effects to a single video layer (mainly working with AVCHD or video from a Canon 5d mkii).  Any effect automatically turns the bar red.  Maybe the codec is just too hard for CS5 to work with but i was hoping with a high-end machine I would be able to do more.
    I have the updated nvidia driver 257.21 and followed the hack instructions. The strange thing was that under step 5 of the hack instructions "under "Manage 3D Settings", Click "Add" and browse to your  Premiere CS5  install directory and select the executable file: "Adobe  Premiere  Pro.exe"", It only had premiere CS4 listed.  In any case, it allowed me to activate mercury in the CS5 preferences.  I remember reading that most people were getting 3 layers with effects (and one person even claimed 11 layers.)  I wondering if i am missing something.  Here are my system specs.
    Windows 7 64 bits
    CS5 (full version no previous versions installed)
    i7-980x (oc'd to 3.9)
    GTX 480
    12g 1600 ram
    Drives:
        raid 0 SSD boot/program
        raid 0 scratch
        raid 3 (4 disk) data/video disks
        single output disk.

    Hi, I am also usung the gtx 480 , and I have been getting very good results. it all depends on other factors that could be causing a issue.
    as Harm suggested try the benchmark test.

    thanks for the answer. yes i know it's great that i recieved this version
    Edit: It hast the standard clock speeds, so is it reference design, which a normal gtx 480 watercooler would fit?
    you have to check compatibility with cooler makers.
    also installing 3th party cooler will void your warranty
