Who knows the best PCI EXPRESS card that money will buy - for
rendering in Carrara 4/5?
I would like to spend between $300 and $1200 on a way-bitchen card
that will dramatically increase speed of rendering on this machine:
MB: Fatal1ty (ABIT) FATAL1TY AA8XE
3.2 GHz P4
1GB RAM (I plan to get more ram)
SATA 10K startup drive, others 7200 (300GB total) Plus External
The motherboard has two 'PCIE' Slots about 1 inch long. What are
these for? (can I add more hardware for greater speed in video?)
Should I be looking to buy ATI, or NVIDIA?
So far I have put my finger on a NVIDIA 6800 class card -- is this
the best choice?
Eovia support/sales say OPEN GL 2.0 support for the card is
important, and that typical 'GAMING' Cards are not very fast for
Carrara.
FAST RENDERING is what I am after.
