Hi all,
FYI, I found a link on the Adobe forums (hope this is OK) regarding the CUDA support and went out and got a GTX 470 1.25GB card. http://forums.adobe.com/message/3064826#3064826 Tells you how to add your card to the PPro CS5 system for CUDA support, works fine here anyway. Need to read the whole thing if your new to Win7. Turns out all the new NVIDIA cards have CUDA support now, ATI still don't. I'm not saying just add the card like the forum post above will work, but anyone who is certain their card had got CUDA, can give it a go. Regards, BM.

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. . .

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?
