Video Card for Premiere and Photoshop?

Hi.   I thought I was reasonably well set up when I got an nVidia GeForce GTX 470 for video editing.   Unfortunately life throws us curve balls...
I'm upgrading one of my current monitors to a much better quality IPS-panel monitor.   At the top of my list is the NEC PA271W-BK-SV. To use it at it fullest, apparently you need to use its DisplayPort.   Which of course the GTX 470 does not have.   So...
I'm looking for a good quality video card that has both CUDA support and a DisplayPort that supports a full 10-bit per color display pipeline. Right now, the only one that I can find under $1,000 is the NVIDIA Quadro FX 3800. Anyone have experience with this one?   Better options at a reasonalble price point?
Thanks and regards,
Dan.

Harm,
That looks like an absolute winner! Many thanks!!!
Dan.

Which video card for Aperture and dual monitors?

I have a G5 dual 2.0 with a GeForce FX 5200 video card that is driving one 23" Cinema display. I need to upgrade my card per the specs to run Aperture. I have also been thinking of getting a second 23" display. Can someone recommend the best video card for me. I know very little about video cards and have been reading a lot this morning. Thanks,
Dave

Hi Dave;
No. PCIx and PCIe or PCI Express are not the same thing.
PCIx is an extended or slight sped up version of PCI. While PCIe is a switched bus structure instead.
Hence they are not the same. That is what all of the big news is about Apple has made the leap over to PCI Express.

Video card for Premiere Pro 4.1

I am trying to decide on which video card to get with my new Windows 7 desktop. I run CS4 Master Suite, mostly:
Premiere Pro
After Effects
Photoshop
My criteria would be:
1.Stability.
2. Performance (most importantly for PP and AE, less so for PS)
3. Quiet. I don't want a jet engine in my office.
4. Price. I will spend whatever it takes, but less is more!
I have been researching this for days and cannot figure out what the answer is. I see on the PPBM project that the top machines use a ATI HD4870, but I have also seen some reviews that this card can be pretty noisy.
In case it matters, here are the specs on my new machine:
The new machine is a Dell XPS 9000 (basically a newer version of my current machine). It will sport:
1 Intel Core i7-920 processor (4 cores)
12 GB RAM
One 1 TB OS drive (SATA) (WD Caviar Green variable speed)
One Project RAID 0 array with 3 drives of 2TB each (SATA) (WD Caviar Green variable speed)
Dual 30" 2560 x 1600 monitors
(I will be posting a seperate question about the RAID project drive ... I see some discussion on this board that perhaps I would be better off with 3 seperate drives. I will be asking about that seperately)
Comments? Suggestions?
Thanks in advance!.

+1 on the very slow green drives
for Adobe you never want an ATI card
nVidia is Cuda enabled and off loads some of the load to GPU.
with upcoming CS5 and the Mercury engine you have very very few choices. all are nVidia
285
and higher Quadro series. (which give no absolutely no performance gain over the 285) in fact most of the quadro are based on the much slower 260.
nVidia managed to get Adobe to agree to this can you guess why?
hopefully before release they will at least support the 295 and (doubtfully the 260)

Video card for Premiere Pro

I am considering purchasing a new 2013 Imac 3.2 GHz quad core I5 with 16 GB of ram. I would probably get the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX with 2GB GDDR5 video card. My question is would the video card allow for Mercury Playback and if not would it get me close to that kind of performance the Mercury Playback provides with Premiere Pro?

Let's assume you are willing to spend € 1000 on your system.
If you get the GTX 660 Ti, you are out of around € 250-300 and that leaves you with around € 700-750 to spend on your disk setup. You already have an 8-port LSI controller. You also have 4 disks, set up as two raid0 arrays, giving you an approximate transfer raid of 260 BG/s on each array if they are modern disks, maybe 200 GB/s if they are somewhat older.
If you were to get say 6 Seagate Constellation ES 1 TB disks @ € 90, that would set you back around € 540 but you gain 6 TB of raw space (5 TB net in raid5), and when configured as a 6 disk raid5 array would give you about 600 GB/s transfer rate. This would require moving one raid0 array to the Marvell ports on your mobo. To me that looks like a better solution than the Titan card.

Best Video Card for Editing and Rendering?

I bet this topic has been discussed at length, but doing a search for "best video card" did not give me the results I need. I am working with the latest version of Magic Bullet Movie Looks and started to notice artifacts in rendered video; flashes, black/white lines and complete boxes in the final frame. I contacted Red Giant, and they informed me my Quadro FX 1500 is not a "supported" card and is most likely the cause of these artifacts. Strange, as Movie Looks had Quadro FX 1300 and up as listed on their web site as compatible - but I digress. My question is, what video card do YOU like for PPRO CS3 AND AE? Movie Looks, like many other programs, rely on the video GPU to render their output - what has been fastest for you, and NOT caused issues with the rest of the system? I use video overlay (as part of Nvidia's Dual View) to edit the Program ouput on a separate monitor and also need this functionality as well - can't live without it! Thanks for your answers.
System Specs:
Dual core Dual processor Woodcrest
6GB RAM
2 TB RAID HD
Current Card: PNY NVidia Quadro FX 1500

Well, if you go to Adobe's hardware compatibility page is does list the 7800 as being fully supported:
http://www.adobe.com/products/premiere/search_result.html?manuSearchVar=1&modelSearchVar=0 &supportSearchVar=0&brand=&dataFormat=&version=CS3&device=graphic&format=
but the 8800 series cards are also listed, which will support CUDA once it becomes widely used. CUDA is rumored to be utilized with CS4 which will speed up render and preview times drastically by utilizing the GPU as well as the CPU rather than mostly the CPU only.
http://insidehpc.com/2006/11/10/what-is-cuda/
This could still be a year or two away, so if you think you may upgrade your video card again before that time, you may want to stick with the 7800 for now.

Best bang-for-buck video card for hi-end Photoshop work..?

When I bought my rig 3 or 4 years ago, I was told that when it comes to 2D performance, all modern video cards are created equal. That the price differences really only affect the 3D side of things.
So I bought a NVIDIA GeForce GT 240.
Why this thing has a fan, I have no idea. Like I said, even when I bought it it was considered "bottom-of-the-heap". Anyhoo, long story short, the fan died on me a couple of days ago. I can now keep the card from overheating through a house fan pointed at the open case. Naturally, I can't keep this going forever. I need to buy a new card.
The good news is that I don't need ANY 3D performance (unless vector logos count). I only use my computer for hi-res Photoshop work (at 1920x1200+ resolution with PSD files that sometimes reach 5 or 6GB) and full-screen video playback. No games are being played on this rig whatsoever.
The bad news, however, is that money is an issue. I can't just go buy the latest $300 card, especially not to put on a 3 or 4 year old rig. The Core i7 920 CPU and 10GB of ram (on Windows 7 64) will keep me going for a couple of years more, but I don't expect to still be using this rig much further beyond that.
I just want to keep using my Adobe suite and play movies in hi-res on this thing. That's it.
I've been told to look into the NVIDIA Quadro series, but that appears to me out of my price range. I'd like to keep it under $150. Or even $100 if at all possible. Other cards quoted to me are the GT630 and R7-250 (which is apparently a rebranded Radeon HD 7770).
What would you guys recommend that would be the best bang for my buck in this scenario? I'd hope most of today's cards - even the cheapest ones - are at least a step up from the NVIDIA GeForce GT 240. Right?
If anyone has any advice...

There was an article on Tom's Hardware yesterday, announcing that nVidia are stopping driver support for it's older cards.
http://www.tomshardware.com/news/nvidia-eol-graphics-card,26304.html
This goes back to the 300 range and earlier cards, but also includes the Geforce 405 from the 400 range.
Be that as it may, my GT 240 is still being listed as supported in last week's 335.23 driver release. And that's the driver that fried it. This "1 driver for all our cards" thing is really for the birds. There's no way for product owners to know what the latest, safest driver for their card is. I don't think NVIDIA thought this thing through when they announced they'd be going with a "single driver for all" model.
I don't think NVIDIA realizes what a huge potential lawsuit could be headed their way from other owners like myself (but not me, I'm not very letigious) who saw their cards get physically damaged by drivers that were supposed to be compatible with them.
I see you recommending I stay under $100, which was my original plan, but then you said I should definitely get a Quadro. When I checked, Quadro cards were more expensive than the GeForce line. Did I misunderstand? Were you saying NOT to touch the Quadros?
On other forums, they tell me to push for the new GTX 750, swearing its 2D performance makes it worth the price, despite the fact that it's clearly a GAMING card, and I don't game.
I'm so confused.

Video card for HD and green screen

I use a windows XP64 based machine with a quad core I7 920 processor and 12 gigs of RAM with nVidia 260 card. I use CS3. Right now I am having severe crash issues in Premeire CS3.
I do HD 1080i video editing with up to 4 layers of green screen. I currently use Adobe AE Keylight2 for my greenscreen work. I bring the files into Premeire with "Dynamic Link". I crash, and crash, and crash. What is my best option to prevent crashing. A Quadro video card? which one? . Or, Matrox Max. My budget is somewhat limited. I can't get both. I want to upgrade to CS5 but need to fix this problem, now.
Sincere thanx to anyone who can help

I appreciate the quick answer and am considering moving to Windows
7 (64). What is the sad story about Matrox? What is the best way to speed
up my rendering or processing without having to purchase another cpu? Thanx once again for your quick response. I render primarily to h.264

I have a DVD-Rom and DVD-Video card for Powerbook and need advice

I acquired 2 accessory components for a G3 series powerbook. I have a dual G4 so have no use for them. There is a M4743 DVD-Rom for Powerbook and a DVD-Video PC card for G3 series Powerbook family M5163. There is also a software CD. I would like to sell them but I really don’t how to explain what this stuff does. I tried Ebay and did not find any matches. Does this make a DVD upgrade for a particular Powerbook? Is something else required? Is Ebay the best place to sell? Any idea what this stuff is worth? Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Bob

Robert,
You apparently have the DVD Video Player Kit for the Powerbook G3 Series "Wallstreet" M4753.
This is the DVD-ROM module:
http://www.powerbookmedic.com/xcart1/customer/product.php?productid=16219&cat=26 6&page=1
This is the DVD Decoder PC card:
http://www.ifixit.com/cart/customer/product.php?productid=296&cat=&page=1
The above DVD PC card is not Apple's but there were two third-party vendors who also offered a DVD kit...VST and MCE. They all served the same purpose and will all be priced similarly.
Both PC card and optical drive are required to play DVD movies on the Wallstreet, plus Apple DVD Player is only supported when booted to 9.x, not 10.x.
I really cannot give you a fair price to ask; the above hardware prices are probably high but you will get an idea.

Best Video Card for non 3d/compositing work in Premiere CS4?

Hi all, I'm looking to optimize my system where I can to speed up the editing process. I edit 1080p footage from the Canon 5D MKII (h.264 MOV files)using half-res h.264 proxies, but CS4 seems to hang a lot in the timeline view and clips just disappear and instead show green. I'm switching to half-res MPEG-2 (.m2v) proxies now and so far that problem seems to have gone away (still testing), but when timeline display quality is at "High Quality" (vs. automatic) there's still some chop during slow pans (not seen with "Automatic" or "Draft Quality").
Anyway, I'm looking for the weakest point in my system and suspect the video card. My system is an 2.66 i7 processor, 6GB 1333 ram, 1x160GB sata II HD (OS/Apps), 3x1TB SATA II RAID 0 (paging file, data), and an $80 ATI 4650 512 MB video card running Vista 64.
So all that said, what's the best general graphics card for editing HD video in Premiere CS4? I don't care about 3d or compositing at this stage, just basic editing of unrendered (timeline playback) HD video, maybe sometimes 1-3 HD layers, some basic color correction effects (b+w, contrast, etc), dissolves, text overlay, some clip speed manipulation.
Many seem to recommend the Nvidia quadro cards, but I haven't found any information to suggest they help with anything other than 3D/compositing, which I don't need (and therefore don't need to pay the premium).
There's also the Nvidia CX card, but it's main feature is touted as encoding h.264, whereas I could care less about that and ideally need decoding of h.264 in the timeline to be better. I haven't seen any great reviews on this card of heard of average user testimonials, probably because it's $2k and it mainly marketed as "zoom more fluidly in photoshop, export h.264 4x faster", which seem like minor issues vs. "better realtime playback of HD video".
I sort of rambled, but if any informed CS4 users can help answer the question regarding the best video card for general CS4 editing use (not 3d/compositing stuff) I'd love to get more insight.

So in Media Encoder CS4, I tried encoding one of the clips that plays back the least smooth in the Premiere timeline (a slow pan across intricate patterns on a sand dune in death valley) to the following:
Format: P2 Movie, Preset: DVCPRO HD 720P 30
(this was the only format in media encoder that mentions DVCPRO HD)
I noticed when trying to customize the setting, that there is no 30 fps option, just 23.976, 29.97, and 59.94. I just went with 29.97 as that was the closest to the 30 fps of the source MK II footage. The width and height were also unajustable at 960x720 for the DVCPRO HD format.
Playing the output in the timeline view of Premiere was comparable in smoothness to the m2v file. I looked at my resource monitor during playback looking for bottlenecks, and the CPU does seem to spike at 100% initially when playing this clip back. I reverted to the m2v version and also saw the same CPU spike. I also reverted back to the down-res'd mp4 version, same spike. Moving display quality down to draft does allow for smooth playback here.
So I guess there's something about this clip that is CPU intensive to play back in the timeline in any of these formats. The original 1080p version plays back perfectly in both quicktime and VLC player.
Anyway, for now I think I'm content with using the m2v proxies as a big chunk of the clips are fairly smooth, and using a reduced quality display mode for clips that don't play as smoothly is accpeptable for now. At least so far I'm not seeing the hanging/video not displaying (and instead showing a green screen) that I was with the mp4 proxies.
If anyone has any other suggestions as to how to get smoother timeline playback for these proxies (or the original h.264 .MOV files), however, whether it be a hardware upgrade (e.g. better video card) or a different proxy codec, I'd love to hear them and give it a shot.

Inexpensive Dual-DVI video card for Cubase 6.5 & Adobe Premiere CS6, on Win7x64

I need a card for both and I can't find one that is "approved" for both. Is anyone using these two programs together? I'm currently using a pair of ATI FireGL V3350 cards that, so far, play video fine in Premiere (haven't done any editing or AE yet) but not in Cubase 6. I'm not a pro so a high end card would be lost on me. An inexpensive card that can handle standard editing in Premiere with some AE, no advanced 3-D (titles only?), and will also play video in Cubase 6.5 is what I'm looking for.
Thanks in advance

hello, @ MD: this should be fun: i use Reason7
in the general forum there is a thread about mulitple monitors
some of the PPRO users here might get a kick out of this as well and/or have comments/advice
here is most of it:
CELTICDALE:
Hi! I`ve been using 3 screens for 7-8 years on 4 different systems.
This solution works on any system I can think of, laptop or desktop.
Matrox TripleHead2Go (Digital Edition) (TH2Go)
It works by splitting the signal from 1 DVI or VGA port to 3 screens.
I just bougt a GTX690 which have 3 DVI ports, but I only use 1 with
the TH2Go because it works perfect without any hassle. The beauty
of it, compared to what others are suggesting, is that you can use
this whith whatever system you have, and you don`t have to by a new
solution (graphics card) if you upgrade. It`s external, so you can
easily move it to another computer. There are no fans and it gets
power from a USB port and use almost no power compared to an extra
gfx card. I also still have to free ports from my GTX690, allowing
me to add 2 more screens if I want.
If you hook it up to a laptop, you can use the laptop screen + up to 3
extra screens. I can run this on an 8 year old laptop I have, with no problems..
People who are suggesting that DVI is getting phased out, are wrong.
The worlds newest and fastest single GPU highend card comes with
2 DVI ports (GTX780, and is released tomorrow)
When I travel, it fits easily inside my laptop bag. Only thing I need
extra is the cables and adapters to hook up to different types of ports.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16815106011
http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/pr...connect_video/
The only way to go in my opinion...
Good luck!
PS. There are different models, with HDMI also, but I reccommend the
model I linked to, as you can just go with adapter if you want to
connect to HDMI and don`t need to send sound to the screen. In the
rare cases I connect sound to the screen, I just use a minijack cable.
But of cource, you know best what you need..
hope this helps in some way, cheers, j

Two graphic cards - 1x GTX680 4GB and 1x GTX680 2GB for Premiere and Resolve

Hi,
i use 2 Nvidia GTX680 cards. 1 with 4 and the other with 2 GB V-RAM
For Resolve i want put the displays in the 2GB card for GUI and let the 4 GB card for GPU use only.
How does this setup work in Premiere. Is Premiere usinh the card where the displays are pluged in? Or does it use the other or maybe both?
I cant find any informations about that
Maybe someone can help

this should be moved here Hardware Forum
i believe premiere will try to use both video cards, you can check with GPU-Z while working/rendering in premiere.

I just downloaded and paid for Premiere elements but now want the combined Premiere and Photoshop elements. How do I do this?

My headline says it all. I would like to turn my Premiere Elements order into the combined Premiere and Photoshop Elements download offer. I have already paid for Premiere Elements but would like to take advantage of the combined offer for only another $40 or so. How do I do this?
I only downloaded and paid for the Premiere Elements package about two days ago.

Did you purchase Premiere Elements 13 from Adobe Direct? If so, are you within 30 days of that purchase? If the answer to both of those questions is Yes and it appears to be, then you should explore
Contact Adobe Chat clicking on the following link
Contact Customer Care
Premiere Elements
Membership, Account, Payment
Payments, Invoices, Orders
Chat Panel
If the link does not hold its set, then you will need to navigate to the Chat Panel using the above titles as guides.
Under the conditions mentioned at the beginning of this reply, I am speculating that Adobe should be able to give you your money back for the Premiere Elements 13, allowing you to purchase Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements which are sold together, but are still really standalone products. How Adobe opts to do that is at its discretion.

Styles in Premiere and Photoshop Elements not the same!

I have Elements Premiere and Photoshop v11. I created a menu using an image with some text in Premiere for a video.. Later on I decided to duplicate the effort using Photoshop.. In Premiere I used a text style called "Lithos Gold Strokes 52". Now, in Photoshop they styles are called Graphics and the Text Graphics doesn't have this Style.. So they don't seem to be the same across both applications. How can I get the "Lithos Gold Strokes 52" Style in Photoshop?
Rgds,
Viking

After finally having solved this problem, I thought I'd post the link to the original solution which has been archived. For me, the important thing was to delelet all registry entries related to Elements, rebooting and starting Elements again.

Learning Premiere and Photoshop is SOOO painful, please help...

I am a student who needs to take a school DVD and take pictures from it. I need to type, "what is this?" on the picture and save it. I need to type "It's a suchandsuch" and save it. So now I have two pictures. One with the question, and one with the question AND answer. I thought Premiere and Photoshop Elements were going to make my life sooo easy!!
I downloaded versions 9 (because you can't download 10, yet) on Sunday and realized it would do what I needed -although getting a picture out of Premiere 9 was ridiculously convoluted. I purchased the combo pack of versions 10 and played around with it long enough to realize they fixed the picture export problem and it was going to work well. I exported a picture from Premiere to Photoshop. I added text to it and got it the way I wanted. Then I saved it. Then I added the second line of text to it and saved it. Everything was rosy. All this functionality was over on the right side of the screen under the "edit" tab. I also noticed an option to save a text "style" or "format" or something along those lines so I could re-use it on the 100 pictures I will be editing.
Then I installed the "content pack" -all 2.45GB while I was doing something else. Now when I'm in Photoshop I don't have the same options under the "Edit" tab on the right. The text options are at the top of the screen and don't include a way to save a text "style". Perhaps it is called something other than style in Photoshop?? It's a new "language" to me... When I google "how do I reuse a text style in photoshop" in Google I get some crazy save a "shape" business, and a work-around from 2005 is number 4 in the Google search list. This is amazing to me. Of course I tried this because the help section was useless within Photoshop.
I get that this may all revolve around me not speaking the right "language" so I am unable to communicate to the Adobe "Help" gods what I am trying to accomplish.
The next thing I am going to attempt to accomplish is importing all the pictures I make in Photoshop back into Premiere and have them play as a movie with a 3 second pause on each picture. It seems logical and easy enough... Fingers crossed...
I also understand the Adobe tools may be overkill for what I am trying to accomplish, but NOBODY has anything good to say about Roxio or Nero video editing products in the $100 range, and everyone raves about Adobe. As a student the combo was $118 so it seemed like an opportunity to learn something new. I'm a former I.T. person who tried to use Photoshop about 10 years ago, but I just didn't "get it". I was not able to think like an artist or someone who grew up on Photoshop so I finally just abandoned it and used Irfanview for all my simpleton photo edits for the last 10 years. I am now reminded of why I gave up on the products way back when, but I am hoping I am older, wiser, and more patient -and that someone here will help me.
Will a human please help me out?
Thank you VERY much!!

Serenity now!!
Thank you again. I get that you can put as many text layers as you want, but what I couldn't get is how to take that layer from one image and put it on a second image.
I finally got it to do what I wanted by right clicking the text layer in the layer pallet and left clicking "duplicate layer" then it asks me for a destination and allows me to select the 2nd image!! It would be so much easier if I could drag the layer to a different image or even right click the layer, left click "copy, then right click a new image and left click "paste".
Thank you so much for all your help. I never did figure out how to do it the "Microsoft" way (saving a text style and applying it to new text), but it looks like it will work so I can move forward. These DVD's take hours to watch so I thought I could save time by taking pictures of the important parts, but I've spent hours so far trying to get to that point! It's a long semester so hopefully it will pay off!
It amazes me that this is so tedious. I have to:
Export an image from Premiere as a .BMP
Open the .BMP in Photoshop
Save the .BMP as a .PSD
Duplicate a layer (that includes my text style) from a different .PSD to the new .PSD
Change the characters in the text to what I want it to say in this image
In my simpleton view I should be able to:
Export an image from Premiere as a .PSD
Click the "Text" tool and click the document
Type the characters I want
Click "My Custom Text Format" button that formats the text to a style I previously saved
Or even:
Export an image from Premiere as a .PSD
Right click a text layer from a different .PSD and left click copy
Righ click in my new .PSD and left click "paste"
Change the characters in the text to what I want it to say in this image
I've got a long way to go!! Layers. Hmm. I wouldn't have thought, but I suppose it makes sense.
Thanks again,
Bryan

New Videocutsystem for Premiere and AE - Hardware - Software

Hi,
we use a XMG Schenker Notebook with Intel i5 and GT660M for our Adobe Creative Cloud.
Becaurse our fast crowing videoproduktionvolume we need a seperate system. Video exports always brings the Notebook to the 100% limit and slows down all other processes.
What we have till now:
Creative Cloud License ; )
What we need:
A seperate System that is fast in videoediting, cutting, rendering and export.
The videofootage is comin from Canon EOS 5D MK III, 600D and Nikon D7000, sometimes GoPro 3. All in 1080, 24fps (sometimes 50/60fps).
Adobe After Effects is used for damn simple intros and effects, no big show but running often at the same time with Premiere.
Premiere CC is used for inspect the files, cut, render and export the final results.
What we know:
I got basic knowledge and an idea what could fit after research in communities like slashcam and a helpfull call with Adobe technical support.
And - we don't buy Macs ; )
Ideas & Questions:
Storage:
128gb SSD OS, Premiere, AE
256gb SSD actual projects
3TB internal BackUp + NAS and Server for Backup the final results later.
1TB+ External BackUp directly after recording till project is finished.
Which SSDs and HDDs should we buy?
Where to but which Cache etc. files for more speed?
OS:
Windows 7 or Windows 8?
64Bit for sure?!
RAM:
Technical support said 8gb is enough, more than 1600MHz can't be used.
We thought about 16GB 1600 - so which one to buy?
CPU, MainBoard, Grafics, special Videocards:
Hardest topic for us. There are cards like Quadro FX or special optimized "cutting-cards" for Premiere. These cards take work away from the CPU, so maybe a slower one can be used here. But is this saving money and time or mostly nice to have? We aren't Hollywood... and it's not our goal.
Display is a DELL U2711 (or the next gen model, or something similar). 2560x1440, DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort etc.
We need help with picking the right CPU on the right MoBo in combination with the right grafiXs card : )
Costs:
Without display it should go around 1000-2000 Euros. Focus on the next 2-3 Years without upgrading - if this in realistic in videoproduction?
I know Quadro FX fit's easily this range alone... but maybe there is an ultimative reason to spend 3000Euros for the whole system...?
Thanks a ton for your help!
