How is this card for HD video Editing?

Thanks, Idontcare, for the explanation! to understand better, you use TMPGEnc to capture the video (with the appropriate filter), then edit using a different program? And have you had chance to look at the "TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 5" software? it says it supports x264, i assume that is...

Hi Cerb, I just realise that TmpgEnc that everyone is referrring to is a paid product...i was thinking of the free product from few years ago(which was quite fast, but not so user friendly). I will try out the trial of the commercial product this weekend, to see how good it is, and whether to...

How is this card for HD video Editing?

So if I moves to Intel, its about $100 for mobo + about $250 for Intel i5 with "Intel HD Graphics 3000"(which has the QuickSync ability). maybe better to buy a better card, like 5770?

How is this card for HD video Editing?

Hi cerb, thanks for the quick and detailed reply. I think a 5670 is looking like a good fit for me. which one would you suggest from the following: 5670 1GB GDDR5 comparisons The gigabyte looks pretty good, but only 2 reviews. I would like the card to be quite and not become very hot. Thanks!
