At the same time, I'm curious as to the VRAM requirements of workloads like this. I've seen guides online for modifying the approved GPU list to allow for "unsupported" Quadro GPUs, and some GeForce GPUs as well - which frankly seems almost too easy. While the price/performance of these is far more palatable, they're still around 3x the price of consumer variations of the same cards, all while packing inferior (and probably noisy!) single-slot coolers.
AVID MEDIA COMPOSER 8 ON CORE2DUO 6GB RAM PRO
AMD has just launched the Radeon Pro line, which I'd reckon will receive Avid certification soon (if they don't have it already). This won't be built until AMD Zen is out, as I understand higher core counts are always better for this kind of work, and I want to see how it compares to X99/X299.įrom reading around a bit, it seems Avid does support some GPU acceleration (although what exactly is accelerated is more difficult to find documentation on), but the only "qualified" GPUs are pro-level Quadro (various wildly expensive and/or underpowered models) and FirePro GPUs (all outdated, 2014-era). If you need price comparison sites, I use Prisguide.no and Prisjakt.no. My budget is far from unlimited - It's not fixed (yet), but I doubt I'll be able to stomach more than $1600 (equivalent, I live in Norway, so around 15 000 NOK). She'll be editing 4k video, mostly shot on Sony A7SII cameras. She mostly works in Avid Media Composer, so performance in that specific application is the main focus. So I'm in the process of planning a video editing PC rig for my wife as a gift.
