Thanks, = Bruce.

Any suggestions for a CUDA card? I'm = running Snow Leopard in a MacPro3,1 Tower. I'm not crazy about = upgrading to Mountain Lion as I still use FCP and Color. Color breaks = with 10.7 and above, I believe. I've been wanting to move to Da Vinci = but the $1,000 is a hurdle I can't jump over right now. Anyway, it's = late, been working all day and I'm losing my = mind.

Thanks also to Brian Klein for the tip = about the high quality check = box.

Premiere Pro with a suitable = CUDA card, either directly supported or manually added to the PP = list

So use Premiere Pro, but you'll get better = quality (and more speed) by adding a new(ish) video = card.
