Sound & Graphics Cards for CS3/Premiere/After Effects?
I'm putting together a new much with a quad processor.
I am going to be running XP. What is a good sound card for CS3. I was going to use an E-MU card, but the Adobe website that E-MU is not supported. So what is a good ASIO2 card under $250? Also, I was going to get an nVidia GeForce 8800GT video card for the moment. This is listed on the Adobe site as approved. Is this a good choice for a card in this price range? (256mb, $200) Thank you! |

Follow the Adobe site recommand should be right on the hardware using APPCS3 and AEFCS3. Im using Exp PCI on ATI Radeon HD 2600 with HDMI output.

If you want to accelerate 3D stuff in Aftereffects, then a Quadro rather than a GeForce would be preferable.
I use a cheap 7600GS with fanless heat sink - it works fine, and in fact I understand the 7-series has better overlay support than the 8- series. |

Thank you K.C. and Graham.
Have gone with a GeForce for the time being. For sound will use an M-Audio 24/96. Will only be doing basic editing for the web at this time. Can upgrade if getting into more AfterEffects 3D and HD editing. |
