| That makes things interesting since the price difference between a Quadro 4000 and the 3GB 580GTX is less than $250 depending on where you shop for parts. I would love to hear from anyone who's tried CS6 with the 580. I suppose if someone were to do a render test in Premiere Pro 5.5 it might give an indicator of what advantage you could get with either card but without a base to compare it to this is all speculative. If you go with raw Cuda cores the 580GTX has twice as many plus more RAM than the Quadro. That alone should make a major difference but it's all about the drivers. -Rob On Tue, Apr 17, 2012 at 10:48 AM, Chris Meyer <chris@crishdesign.com> wrote: -- The specific advantage of more VRAM is you can fit larger layers into memory instead of having them swapped out for processing. This is particularly an issue with environment maps in AE CS6 (see the first page of my review on PVC - http://tinyurl.com/AECS6onPVC). So I'd go for the 3 GB flavor.
