Its complicated what I would do is create a backup format the drive reinstall windows  and load from your backup

just to clarify things, a driver (in this case a RAID driver) is a small piece of software that enables your Operating System (windows) to communicate with the hardware(RAID-Controller).

A driver is installed onto an Operating system and stored on the same partition of that harddrive

if you want to create RAID volumes you need to go into the hardware settings or maybe your RAID-controller has some software that runs with windows.

get it off your motherboard's website and put the folder into a flash drive and plug it in when your installing windows

Use a raid card. Or you can install something like freenas.

What RAID card do you use?
If you are using the onboard RAID, you have to enable it in the BIOS/UEFI.

You need an OS to install drivers.

The Driver is part of windows so...
You would have to have a dedicated raid card.

What do you mean? Install the drivers where?

you need a powerful computer and fast storage to do that so it's better to do proxy files for editing and then replacing them when finishing. this is why I am having problems going completely to premiere for work stuff most of my work is with 4k files.

Nvidia GeForce cards support both OpenCL & Cuda, but their OpenCL support is very minimal & they focus mainly on Cuda.

NVIDIA has some support for OpenCL but prefers CUDA and OpenGL.

If you've had a good experience with Gigabyte in the past then by all means go for them! In the end all it really comes down to is
 
1. Warranty
2. if the sticker looks pretty :D

asus but if you are open to suggestions, msi. there coolers are as good if not as good as direct cu ii and way cheaper. :)

which is better?
 

660! I believe that the 650ti boost is between the 650ti and 660, so 660 should be better, otherwise their whole naming scheme just fails

Adobe dropped Cuda support.

CS6 has cuda support

660, it just owns the 650 ti boost any day.

For how long ?

In gaming the 660 is around 10%faster but when doing adobe premier pro those extra cuda cores will definitely help.

Are you saying Adobe will go in and retroactively remove it?

I don't know I mean perhaps nvidia will who knows but I would rather not chance it and just go with what we know will absolutely be supported in the future which is "Graphics by AMD Radeon HD"

The current Adobe Premiere still supports CUDA. OpenCL support will arrive on the next version. CUDA support will not be removed, OpenCL will just be added as one of the supported 3D accelerators.

To quote/paraphrase yourself from another thread "give me a reputable source, or I'm calling BS on you" :P

What is supported will stay supported, end of story. Adobe will NEVER cut support in any program once so ever, take this as granted, as for the CUDA support not coming with CS 6.5, i tend not to believe it, they started developing CS6.5 before talking to AMD, and i don't see any reason to cut CUDA, we shall see.
