Good graphics card to run sony vegas smoothly (and play games smoothly)

[Danny X]

I'm getting a new desktop computer (Intel Core i5-3330 3.0GHz Processor, 1TB HDD, 8GB DDR3, Intel HD Graphics. I was just wondering if there's a descent graphics card I can get to run sony vegas smoothly and play games with good graphics or is the intel graphics good enough

GTX Titan, lol what ^^^^^ said, what is your operating budget?

£129.99 got me a GTX 660 from MSI, it's overclocked and sexeh as fook. Should be able to run 1080p with your CPU no problem.

Which reminds me, what monitor/resolution are you planning on viewing/recording? That can also be a factor.

My budget is between $35-$100

Yea I agree a GTX 660 will be able to run not just Sony smoothly but most games fairly well. But of course if you got a deep pocket you can pretty much double this.

With that, your not gonna get something 2 good.

If I was you I'd look out for sales on NewEgg, they have some kickass sales an you can get a good Card for ur price..

Other then that what your gonna get for $100 isnt gonna be the best, ud be surpised what an extra$30 would do though.

GTX 650 is the only thing that fits that budget and even that is crap, If you are serious about this try to find either Gtx 660 or Gtx 660 ti

Would the GT640 run vegas smoothly?
