I am putting the wife's rig back together this week. I got to buy her a vga and I am just wondering what would be a good VGA for it. It will be used to run Adobe creative suite and the general computing. The only games it will see is here stupid flash games on Facebook :ohcrap: Any Adobe creative suite gurus out there?

i'd go with 5xxx from amd...they already have opengl4.0 support.

I honestly didn't know ATI had GPU acceleration in Creative Suite? Is there enough GPU acceleration in CS to justify a beefy VGA though? I mean if its only like one or two parts that utilize it then I say hell no and let the CPU do it. Yet I really thought only nvidia cards did the GPU acceleration in CS.

Thanks for the link. Wife uses mainly illistrator and just a little photochop. I guess its not worth the money for a beefy VGA in my case.

Find a 260gtx cheap, that should work very well. Plus use lots of RAM :)
