Im pretty sure the K5000 will be overkil= l if you are just looking for speeding up after effects renders. For $2500 = you can get a lot more performance or save some cash

DoF re= nders a bit differently in raytrace comps than they do in classic 3d and of= course DoF is an expensive operation in 3D.

also it sounds like you dont have an NVidia card with CUDA. with a dec= ent card what you are trying should render relatively fast.

without one it would be painful and i wouldn= t recommend trying :)
