The highest i7 on Intel's web site is still the hex 980 - have they come out
with a new one called 985? Or did you actually mean i7-980?
I used an Intel i7-940 with an nVidia GTX260 CUDA graphics board with CS4.
Check this for GPU support CS4 <http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405445.html>
, and scroll down half a page to see the list "Supported video cards". Many
of those cards might be obsolete; my GTX260 is. But the video support in the
CS5 sections of Adobe's site will tell you about more current products, and
nVidia's CUDA is what they strongly advise. But CS4 didn't support CUDA,
that is new to CS5. The best place to find out about CUDA is nVidia.
An i7-980 is a hex processor which itself should assist processing with CS4,
but CS4 only runs in a 32-bit environment so you might not be able to see
much benefit regardless which video card you get because in the non-CUDA
world the video card itself didn't provide much rendering aid, rendering was
all done by the CPU.
Hope this help. . .

Subject: [AP] Device compatibility matrix
I'm looking for Adobe's device compatibility matrix as I'm now starting to
look into purchasing a new Desk top system. I am specifically looking to use
my Premier PRO CS4 and SoundBooth CS4 with System 7 with an Intel I7 -985
core and would like to get a handle on what Display PCB's/ graphic
processors I should be looking at as well as consideration for the audio
portion as well. The Adobe web site is not user friendly when I tried to
gather this info. Can anyone help?
