I am looking for a graphics card that will help with editing but doesn't need to be high end. Right now I do basic editing but with a integrated Intel card. PPro, Photoshop and AE would like more memory but my desktop only has a 320 watt power supply. Again I just do basic work on this system and just need something more than the integrated. I was looking at the GTX 750 TI but it recommends a 350 watt supply, so I'm not sure if the 320 will be enough. The only things I have on this system is a CD rom and 2 hard drives. It is a core i7 4770 with 12 gigs of ram. If I replace the power supply I void the university warranty, so I'm trying not to do that.

Thanks,
David

Maybe the Nvidia GT 730? Requires 300w power. If you go this route, look for the version with DDR5 memory.

Thanks

thanks for the input. Do you know what is the lowest amount of cuda cores that PPro recognizes?

I found a GTX 750 ti that is lower powered and has a short body. I don't have room in the case for a long body due to where they put the ram. So I think it will work well enough for my system.

Thank you for posting this link. It was very informative and the down load program fixed my GPU issue. I've been using CS5.5 for years and just now discovered the Mercury Playback Engine was never working, even-though I have a Nivida graphics card with the CUDA feature.
Thanks, KPO.
