Which Grafikcard for CS5?

Hi,
at the moment I work on Production Premium CS4 and thinking about upgrading to CS5. At the moment my System is a Intel i7 920 CPU, 12GB Ram, 1GB Raid 1 and 2 GB Raid 0 HDD and a Nvidia GTX 250 Grafikcard/512MB.
To use the Merkury Playback engine I will need another GPU and according to the "hack" found several times on internet a GTX 560 should work very well!
The Question now is, do I need/should I buy a GTX 460 with 1GB or 2GB or RAM?
Or is the amount of GPU Ram not important (but I will need at least 768MB as I read in the tests)??

To use the Merkury Playback engine I will need another GPU and according
to the "hack" found several times on internet a GTX 560 should work
very well!
I doubt the validity of that information, because the GTX560 does not exist.
Entry level: 460
Economic: 470
High-end: 480
The more memory, the better.

Which GPU for CS5.5?

Here's some interesting information.
"I asked Adobe to confirm my findings and the following statement: "When using an approved NVIDIA card, CS5.5 performs better using cards with more CUDA cores." A few days later I received a short but to-the-point email confirming that my statement is accurate."
Seems CS5.5 takes better advantage of the CUDA cores in a card, and additional cores now means some significant improvements.

Bill,
Thanks for the CS5 5.0.3 results with various GPUs. That 9500 GT is really hobbled by its slow, low-bandwidth DDR3 graphics memory: The MPEG-2 DVD encoding performance with the 9500 GT is nearly three times slower than with even an ATi/AMD GPU. What's more, the H.264 Blu-ray encoding performance is more than two times slower with the 9500 GT than with an ATi GPU.
By extension, the really sluggish performance also applies to the GT 220 and to a lesser extent the GT 430 and the DDR3 versions of the GT 240 and GT 440.
And I was surprised with the results from the GTX 550 Ti: Despite fewer CUDA cores and 192-bit memory bit width (specifically, the GTX 550 Ti has one 512MB chip and two 256MB memory chips, for a total of 1GB on a 192-bit bus), it actually outpaced the older GTX 260 Core 216 despite the latter's 448-bit memory bit width because the GTX 550 Ti uses DDR5 memory versus the lower-bandwidth DDR3 memory on the GTX 260.
So while the GTX 550 Ti is a better BFTB than the GTX 260 and most of the higher-end GeForces, your testing also shows that equipping such a high-end editing system with a really cheap GeForce such as a GT 220 would have thrown that entire system off balance. (Or put it this way, equipping an expensive editing rig with such a cheapo graphics card is like putting more and more mucus inside someone's chest.)

.cr2 images from eos700d. Which plug in required for cs5? Confused, stuck and end of tether!

Hello,
I've hit this very annoying snag that I got a new camera (originally eos350d) and go to upload images and edit...it doesn't recognise the file tag .CR2!
I'm confused as to what plug in is best for 700d and equally compatible for CS5. Downloaded the DNG convertor but that won't read them either. I'm just seeing a bunch of numbers and it isn't processing i'm afraid. Can somebody help, please?
I work of a Mac 10.6.6.
Many thanks in advance.

Your camera is only directly supported by Photoshop CS6 and newer.
Generally speaking, Adobe stopped updating older versions to be able to read raw files from newer cameras when they released a new major version of Photoshop. Photoshop CS5 is no longer receiving Camera Raw updates.
You can double check this yourself...
First you need to determine whether Adobe has released support for your new camera in your version of Photoshop. To do that, look at these two pages. You'll want to find out the earliest version of Camera Raw that can support your camera, then what version of Photoshop can run that version of Camera Raw.
Camera Raw plug-in | Supported cameras
Camera Raw-compatible Adobe applications
If you find your camera is supported by your version of Photoshop, you need to download the latest update for Camera Raw. There's more information on how to do that here:
Keeping Photoshop Up-To-Date
If your version of Photoshop cannot support your camera, you can download and install the latest version of the free Adobe DNG Converter, which can take your raw files as input and put out DNG format files, which your version of Photoshop can open.
Photoshop Help | Digital Negative (DNG)
The DNG converter DOES work, but if you want maximal quality from your raw files (not to mention the convenience and ease of use of directly opening your raw files) you'll want the latest version of Photoshop. Adobe has made substantial improvements in raw conversion quality in recent years.

Upgrade to CS4 web premium . . . or wait for CS5 ?

The question I have for anyone who may have some insight: Is there anything groundbreaking in the works for Dreamweaver, Photoshop or Illustrator in CS5 which is due to be released in about 6 months ?
We have CS3 Web Standard, and now want to upgrade to Web Premium so we can get Photoshop and Illustrator which we now need, but with some pain could probably find a way to hold off for another 6 months .... if it was worth the wait that is. We don't necessarily need (and can't afford) the latest Software version all the time, but has there been any discussion about Improvements or New Features in the next release that's going to make us regret not waiting .......... ?
* We are a small home business, but don't want to miss out on any major changes if you know what I mean . . .

I wouldn't expect anything groundbreaking from one version to the next. It sometimes comes down to maximizing your operating system to take advantage of speed boosts in both the OP and CS applications. Your existing CS3 system may not be compatable with the requirements of CS5 whatever they may be, or not. It's hard to say. If you are planning on getting new hardware ( sounds like you are not ), then you may want to wait. If you plan on using your existing hardware, you may be able to upgrade to CS4. But from the sounds of it, CS3 and Tiger is a pretty good combination and you will be able to get away with using that for awhile. There have been significant fixes from CS2 to CS4, where CS3 had it's problems in Illustrator ( not sure about PS ). Adobe sometimes throws a bone out to people who buy CS4 and get a break when they ante up for CS5, just be aware of the system requirements.

What laptop to get for CS5 or CS6...

Increasingly there appear questions about which laptop to get for CS5/6.
First, the question is why a laptop and why not a desktop?
Laptops are always at least 2 to 3 times slower than a desktop, they are significantly more expensive than a desktop with the same or better performance and they need a wall outlet to use. Batteries don't last long enough for editing and you need a wall outlet for external components (disks, monitor, BD-R etc.) that are required. All that makes a laptop more like an expensive, underpowered luggable machine.
For video editing machines it is always best to use a machine for video editing only and use a second system for other applications and this is especially true for much weaker laptops than desktops.
So, let me repeat the question: What are the considerations to use a laptop over a desktop? You have to be very clear about it to sell the idea to the one responsible for the budget. You also have to be clear about the performance penalty, if you decide to go forward with a laptop.
OK, we got this out of the way. You have good arguments to get a laptop and you have succesfully sold the idea to the one responsible for the available budget.
So what are your choices and what do you need to look for in terms of specs?
First, let me remind you of the article Adobe Forums: What PC to build? An update... because it contains a number of relevant issues that influence your choice. Basically there are three approaches possible:
Get a laptop from a brand company like Asus, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Toshiba and the like.
Get a customizable laptop from specialist companies like Sager or Clevo.
Get a custom builder like ADK Video Editing build you a system tuned to your needs.
All these solutions have a number of common components, under the assumption you want to edit HD material:
CPU: at least a quad core i7 processor, preferably with hyper-threading. The faster the better.
GPU: at least a nVidia GTX 660M or better with 1+ GB DDR5 memory.
Disks: at least 2 internal 7200 RPM disks.
Connections: minimum is eSATA plus USB3 ports.
Monitor: at least 1920 x 1080 resolution and 15.4" screen size or bigger.
Memory: bare minimum is 8 GB but workable is only 16 or 32 GB.
Looking at brand names one may come up with a short-list like:
Now, in their standard configurations they are all lacking on some aspects. Insufficient memory, only single disk, or lacking connections. If these can not be configured to meet the above practical minimum requirements, where at least 2 disks is the most crucial, there is only companies like Sager and Clevo to look at. Something like this is about bare minimum, because of the underspecced video card:
Despite the price this will still be around 3 times slower than an equally priced desktop. If that performance penalty is too big, then one can consider a system like this:
Again, despite the price, this system will still be more than 2 times slower than a far less expensive desktop, but hey, you knew that when you decided on a laptop and got approval for the budget, right?
The last option is to go to a custom builder to get a laptop that is exactly tuned to your needs and budget. It will not be less expensive than the Sager route, but it will get you the best balance between performance and price for your needs. Additionally, you get great service if ever needed.
To sum this up, a laptop is a compromise. A compromise in performance and price. It is not for the faint of heart, faint of wallet. It is not a laptop, it is a luggable system on a wall outlet. An alternative is coasters under a desktop system and you can use other wall outlets as well, but with a better price and far better performance.
I hope this will help people to decide if they really need a laptop and if affirmative, to get the right system for their needs.

As usual, Harm has provided very knowledgeable and helpful advice in this matter. I would like to add that if you are inclined, and feel it's worth a gamble.....New Egg has been selling refurbished Asus i7 laptops that have almost all the necessary components for a lower price than normal. You may have to add more memory yourself and add a quality SSD for OS and programs and pagefile, ( cloned from the supplied drive). Then, use the supplied drive for media and all else in the second bay....or, as an emergency backup of your original configuration. I am not sure,but I think if you put a second Marvell controlled SSD in the second bay instead,( Corsair Pro or Plextor Pro...no Sandforce), you may get the benefit of SATA III speeds from BOTH drives for best laptop performance.....I am not sure if earlier criticisms of SSD degradation still apply with these newer Marvell controlled SSDs.
      I DO know that my old Asus G73JW tested MUCH FASTER on Harm's PPBM5 benchmark when I added extra memory,( from 8 to 14GB ), AND used a Corsair Force 120GB SATA II SSD in each of the two internal drive bays. On that site you can see similar laptops to mine performing way slower using less memory and conventional spinning HDDs. At the time, I was careful to choose SSDs that had a high read AND write speed. I have had no issues with my SSDs. I also have used the Seagate Momentus XT hybrid HDD as project drive.....and scored lower on the PPBM test,( not submitted).
      Harm is right.....any laptop will not approach the performance of a good desktop setup....not to mention PPro CS 6 appears to be even more powerful and demanding than the 5.03 I'm using. People are reporting needing at least 32GB memory and more than 2GB video card memory to get better performance.
   Someone posted about Exotic PC selling upgraded laptops, ( some Asus) with up to 32GB memory and muliple HDD configurations....you may be able to upgrade a laptop similarly yourself for less money. Watch the sales at Tiger Direct and New Egg....you may find some thing workable.

Another "will this set-op be OK for CS5.5?" post.

This is yet another "is the computer I want good enough for CS5.5" question. Before I begin I'll ask you to please forgive my ignorance and the length of this post. I'm new to having to care about computer hardware. In the past any decent PC has met my needs, but I'm no longer finding that to be the case as I now have a need to edit video.
So I'll start with my particular needs. I need portability. I'm a student and direct a summer camp. In my role at camp I have identified the need to improve our camp promotional material, and that's where the video editing comes in. I'll be shooting and editing several promotional shorts and a couple of documentary style shorts using DSLR footage and perhaps a little camcorder or two. After much research, and playing around with some free trial software, I've settled on CS5.5, but there's only one problem, my computer just isn't up to the task. Conveniently enough, my current computer has seen better days and it's time to upgrade anyways, so I've been researching and shopping around trying to find an appropriate computer. As portability is a must, and I can't afford a decent desktop and a laptop (and even if I could always transferring data back and forth would be annoying), I've been looking at laptops. It seems like any off-the shelf laptop that is well suited to run adobe isn't really all that portable. Sure you can transport it a lot easier than a desktop, but you can't expect to get a full day of battery life out of it, nor is it a reasonable weight to carry all over creation (my point is that a 17" laptop is out). So I did a little digging, and after reading a lot of posts on this forum and a lot of information from other sources I think I've come up with a solution. I'm looking for input into potential problems any tech-savvy people see with my idea, and sales reps for dell aren't tech savvy, so I figured this was a good place to find out how well adobe would run on my proposed set-up (I'm not a pro, and won't be editing feature length films, so I don't think I need the same performance as a tricked out desktop, I just need it to perform well with as few hold ups as possible).
Here's what I've come up with:
Dell XPS 14z:
Intel core i-7 2640M (2.8GHz, with "turbo boost" up to 3.50GHz)
8 GB Dual Channel DDR3 SDRAM
750 GB SATA, 7200rpm hard drive
Nvidia Geforce 520M 1GB graphics card
The only information on screen resolution I could find on the Dell web-site was "true 720p HD display" after reading a few reviews, I found the specs were lower than the minimum recommended by Adobe, I forget exactly what they are though.
So this computer is more than I would ever need for my non-video editing needs. On paper it's a nice little laptop, a little pricey ($1300!), but they can be had at a very reasonable price ($700 - $800) refurbished from the Dell online outlet. None-the-less I can see several problems with this set-up.
First is the Display: it's inadequate. That's easily solved by using an external monitor, and you can get a pretty decent monitor off of tiger direct for less than $200. I can tolerate video editing at a desk, I need portability for other applications.
Second is the hard drive. From reading this forum I understand that editing with only one hard drive can slow things down quite a bit. I was wondering how big a deal this really is for the casual editor? There are adaptors that allow you to place a second hard drive where the optical drive is in this laptop. If it's necessary, I plan on putting a second 750GB 7200 rpm HDD where the optical drive is. Problem solved, right? Does anyone see any problems with this idea? My next question about the hard drive topic is: how much would a third hard drive really benefit me? And would data transfer using an external HDD with a USB 3.0 connection be fast enough to be a viable option for a third drive? Either way I could pick up an appropriate hard drive and caddy for a little under $175 and around $100 for an external HDD with USB 3.0 to be used as a third drive if necessary.
The third potential problem is the RAM. It seems there are a lot of opinions out there about how much is enough. Is 8 GB adequate? According to intel's web site this particular processor is compatible with up to 16GB of RAM, and after searching various forums I found a couple instances of people expanding their RAM on this computer to 16GB with no issues. I understand that I can replace the current 2x4GB set up with either 1x4GB + 1X8GB or 2x8GB to give either a total of 12 or 16GB of RAM. Is this necessary or even beneficial? 8GB would be more than enough for anything else I do, and since I have little experience with video editing I thought I'd ask those who know. Is a RAM upgrade necessary? Using this configuration I could update the RAM to 12 GB for around $100 and to 16 GB for around $200.
Finally, the graphics card that comes with this computer isn't on the list of cards recommended by Adobe. I understand that this is because it doesn't support CUDA, how much of an issue is this? Will I be able to efficiently edit video without a recommended card?
The point of all the numbers is this: 800+200+175+100=1,275. For $1275ish it seems to me I could get a very reasonable video editing set up that's still portable. That's less than the sticker price on these laptops, and a lot less than a mac book pro, which is everyone's first recommendation when I mention I want to use the computer for video editing. This seems like a very reasonable price for a laptop with an intel i7 2.8GHz, two 750GB 7200rpm HDD's, 12GB of RAM, and an external monitor for when I want to sit down and edit. Am I delusional in thinking this would run well using CS5.5?
So I guess the point is this. Life is about trade offs, and since I primarily need portability and I'm not a professional (just an anal consumer with high standards :), I'm willing to trade a little bit of video editing performance for the improved portability. I want the opinion of those who have experience using CS5.5 with various set-ups, does my proposed set-up seem like a reasonable trade-off? Are the upgrades even neccessary? Would they be enough to provide a reasonable editing experience? Any other advice (besides buying a desktop or a wicked expensive 17" laptop that weighs two to three times as much and chews through battery life)?
Thanks for sticking with this and giving me any feedback. It's appreciated!

Benson,
Glad the comments were helpful!
Regarding RAM, the following test results were mine from an old thread:
"...RAM size: increasing from 4GB to 8GB doubled the MPE GPU performance [11 sec. vs. 6 sec.] and improved the MPEG2-DVD performance [122 sec. vs. 91 sec.]; the other tests only improved marginally. Increasing from 8GB to 16GB made significant additional improvements to the MPEG2-DVD time [91 sec. vs. 37 sec.]; all other tests hardly changed at all". [Note that my testing, and current system, run 5.0.3, not 5.5, but I suspect that these results are still probably reasonable for your situation.]
Thread was: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3465135 (How changes to CPU speed, RAM size, and drives impacted my PPBM5 score)
Regarding graphics card RAM, either card would work just fine for you. User's that have a need for massive frame sizes might benefit from the 3GB model, but for normal HD work the 1.5 will be fine.
Regards,
Jim

1. Has been recommended on these forums. Good to have USB3.0.
2. CPU is affordable and fast, with the ability to overclock it if I feel the need for a bit more speed in the future.
3. Would love 12GB, but will start with 6GB and perhaps add more later.
4. Started looking at Solid State Drives as I love the comments about how fast they load programs, etc., however as they are still really expensive felt that going with a fast standard drive would be best. As I plan on having a dual boot system, I would get two of these. One would have OS, CS5 and all my other software installed and the other one would have the minimum for CS5 installed and the OS tweaked for performance with video editing.
5. Both seem like great drives. Anyone any preference? Would plan on getting two and use one to store video rushes and the other for previews and the page file. Would getting a HD with a 6GB/s interface be worth it?
6. I want a quiet case and one that's no higher than 45cm. I already own the Antec Solo and I like the elastic HD mounting. Anyone any preference?
7. Noctua comes recommended on these forums, however am concerned with it's size. Love the idea of water cooling an the H50 system make it easier and less fuss being a closed system. Final choice must be quiet and I've read differing reviews on both.
8. Can't wait to use the MPE, so want a decent card. Torn between getting a cheaper card and upgrading later or spending the money now on a GTX480 and doing the software hack until fully supported.
9. With a GTX480 would a 750w PSU be enough?
GRAPHICS CARD
I've read reports of the GTX480 not being faster than the 2XX version card, however am I not correct in saying that the 2XX cards are no longer being sold? Should I be looking for a card from a particular manufacturer, i.e. Asus, Gainward, Point of View, Gigabyte? Or even Nvidia themselves?
I am worried about the heat generated by the GTX480 and the associated fan noise to cool it. Any thoughts?
Love the water cooling solution, perhaps some day. http://www.guru3d.com/article/geforce-gtx-480-liquid-cooling-danger-den-review/1

DUAL BOOT
For my dual boot, has anyone had experience of using a HD caddy like this one? http://www.ebuyer.com/product/172727
I read a review which said that there was no real speed difference as there is no interface card, just a cable to the motherboard. It would make my dual boot less complicated to set-up as I wouldn't need to use Win 7 to dual boot or use 3rd party software like Acronis OS Selector. It would also free up space for a further internal HD.
PREMIERE OUTPUT TO A HDMI SCREEN
I've been going back and forward on the best solution to get a proper output of my timeline in Premiere to an external monitor. I was set to go with the Matrox MX02 Mini, however some here have said they're unstable (to a degree). Although with the CS5 drivers not out yet, perhaps it's too early to say.
Although none of my video work has been for broadcast (so far), I see a great benefit from being able to preview my timeline on a TV screen as opposed to a PC monitor. I will be running two screens so I need both outputs from the graphics card.
I look forward to receiving your collective wisdom.

Here are the components I plan to buy this week:

Plus a couple of PSU to motherboard extension cables and Windows 7 Pro. It was mentioned by someone that the CPU thermal paste you get with the HN-D14 is fine, so no need to buy anything else.
One extra fan (NF-S12B) to cool hard drives and the other for somewhere else in the case. Perhaps I don't need these.
I presume that I should try and get an OEM CPU as I'll not need the heatsink and fan that'll be in the retail version?
I'm just waiting for Scan to get the case back in stock. Should be today. All priced at Scan, except last three items which are from Overclockers.
Anyone any final thoughts or tips?

Camera Raw update for CS5 Extended

I am looking for a Camera Raw update for CS5 Extended. I currently have CR 6.7.0.339. IS there something newer for me to use with CS5 Extended, Ver. 12.1x64?

Camera Raw 6.7 is the latest version that's compatible with Photoshop CS5. There's nothing newer for CS5.

If you need Camera Raw 7+ for your camera, you'll have to upgrade to Photoshop CS6.
Which camera do you have?
Supported cameras and minimum Camera Raw version required are listed here:

Build error on using environment variable for CS5 on Mac

I have created a sample project using dollyx on Mac for CS5 . I have used an environment variable and defined it in Source tree of XCode preferences.
I am using snow leapard and my XCode version is 3.2.2 .
I have defined variable as IDSDK7 for /idsdk7 (which is my SDK directory). I am creating project outside SDK . While creating project with DollyX , I am giving SDK's path as $(IDSDK7) which is absolute path and not relative with respect to the project .
I am getting many build errors -----

Without using environment variable everything works fine . (i.e when I give SDK's dir path like ../../ i.e relative to my project)

There is workaround : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12629395/weblogic-using-environment-variable-double-quotes-in-arguments-in-server
Just posting here for reference. Let's see if we get a different answer from anyone else.

How do I get camera raw plugin for cs5.1 extented for new olympus omd e-m1 camera?

how do you get camera raw plugin for cs5.1 extented for new olympus omd e-m1 camera?

Native support requires ACR version 8.3, which will only run under CS6 or CC.
Use the free DNG converter to make DNGs readable in older ACR versions. http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates.html

Cannot update at least AdobeBridge for CS5

Is there a patch for Adobe Illustrator CS4 for the issue described in APSB10-29 for CS5?

APSB10-29 acknowledges a problem that affects CS5 and ALL earlier versions, however only makes available a patch for CS5. We tried using the patch on our CS4 installation, but it says it isn't applicable to our installation. Is there an applicable fix for earlier versions such as ours?

We use the Nessus vulnerability scanner to check for potential OS and applications security issues, and it's picking up on this vulnerability in our Illustrator CS4 installattion, and it's suggesting we apply the 15.0.2 update, which we can't. So is this likely just a false positive? Do we know for a fact that this issue is strictly a CS5 issue? If that's the case I'll just note it as such and move on. Thanks.

Video camera compatibility for CS5? what sequence setting do I use?

I am new to the extraordinarily complex world of hard drive/hybrid cameras. I have always used tape and firewires with few problems. A student came in today with new camera she just bought a Panasonic SDR –H85. We downloaded a video file, but it would not import into Premiere. I also had no idea which of the dozen new sequence set-ups to use. How do I find out camera compatibility for CS5? (Adobe doesn’t list specific models.) And what sequence setting do I use?

Thanks for your help! For some reason we had a hard time finding these specs. It looks like it is a SD camera, not a High Definition camera (the HD on the side of the camera mistakenly meant Hard Drive, not High Definition?)
At any rate we now need to use the Adobe media encoder to convert the file so that we can import it into Premiere ….all with a loss of quality due to the re-rendering. (btw, what is the best file to re-render?). I suggested that the student who just bought it return it for a camera (preferably High Def) that will work in Premiere. Any suggestions?

Serial for cs5 from pc to Mac

I have a student serial number for cs5 on my pc and have bought a Mac. When I try to install cs5 on my Mac and fill in the serial number i get the error message "this serialnumber is not valid for this product". what does it mean? How can I get cs5 to work on my Mac?

To get the version of CS5 that you purchased to work on your Mac you will need to install a Windows emulator such as BootCamp. A windows versions of a Creative Suite will not work on a Mac, nor will a serial number for a Windows version.
Unfortunately, CS5 does not qualify for a platform swap since they only allow that for the most current release which is CS6.

9 downloaded install files for CS5.5... what install order, Todd?

Just got my license approval for CS5.5 and am downloading it from the Adobe licensing site... When I clicked to download the Master Collection CS5.5, I was given a whole bunch of files to download. After leaving out the 32-bit CS4 versions of things, I was left with 9 files... anybody know which order to install these in? Nothing in the download help files told me where to start or how to continue...
I have:
Master Collection CS5.5 Installer (exe) 1MBMaster Collection CS5.5 Content (7z) 5.1GB
Production Premium/Master Collection CS5.5 Content (exe) 175MB
After Effects 10.5 Content Installer (exe) 1MBAfter Effects 10.5 Content (7z) 744MB
InDesign Family Content (exe) 156MB
Premiere Pro CS 5.5 Content Installer (exe) 1MBPremiere Pro 5.5 Content (7z) 2.5GB
Illustrator 15.1 Content (exe) 120MB
I'm guessing that the exe files will access the content in the 7z files, so no need to worry about the 7z files. I'm also quite sure that the first exe file comes first. But is there a specific order to all the following files? I suppose I could just wait till my install discs get here next week, but I'm kinda impatient!
Also, I'm assuming that, as with previous versions, there's no need to uninstall CS5.0.3 before installing this one? Can 5.0.3 be safely uninstalled later if I want it to be? I know there's probably answers to those two questions buried deeply here back in the summer when 5.5 first came out, but I'm feeling kinda lazy this morning. So if nobody answers those two I'll get my lazy butt in gear and go look!

Oh. Bummer. It'd be nice if Adobe would make that notation on their site, then... I've already downloaded everything else. Oh well. At least I'm on a 50mbps fibre connection. 15 minutes left on the MC download, and I can rock it!

Which Grafikcard for CS5?
