All good on Windows on = qualified ATI + NVIDIA cards.

FreeForm V2 (not = bundled with AE CS6) has no GPU = requirements.

My 2 cents... I really like the = GTX 680 for the Mac and I am sure that the AE team will do their best to = have CS6 work well with it. Too good a card to pass up = on.

I have an AJA Kona3 for broadcast monitoring, but I need the dual = display for desktop.
