Hi,
I'm having a computer built for me I need some advice so I can have
the best components used within my anticipated price range.
I have read this whole thread and I use Premiere primarily to edit
Mini DV Video. I'm not exactly grasping the whole ideas discussed but
I do have some related questions.
1) The wikipedia article says that since 2004 the PCI Express is the
newer technology so does that mean that AGP is NOT something I would
expect to find on a newer Motherboard?
2) If indeed I can expect to find a PCI Express slot available then am
I understanding that there is a totally different type of Video Card
that I need to be looking at other than those suggested in later posts
to this thread: EVGA and PNY etc.? What cards have you with PCI
Express slots used with good success?
3) I'm understanding that I'll need a Video Card for "viewing" and
"possibly" another card that "possibly" can assist me in the actual
editing of Video. If this is correct? Then I expect I'll be spending
somewhere in the vicinity of $100 or somewhat more for the Video Card
but is there an "ADDITIONAL" card that I can purchase that will give
me a more pleasant editing experience BUT still stay in the $300 or
less price range? If so what would you recommend?
Your recommendations would be very welcome,
thanks much,
