Graphics card choice help

[BlackUnicornGaming]

I am going to be building a mineral oil pc for my dad to edit videos. he will be putting it under high loads constantly. I am looking to find out what graphics card I should get for this build. the graphics card(s) need to be able to work well with this motherboard which will be running a i7 6700k with around 32GBs of RAM. if you have any suggestions plz let me know. Thanks!

Assuming he's also gaming and using programs with GPU acceleration with no budget? GTX 980Ti.

 

Otherwise, he can just use the iGPU.

he will not be gaming and plz try to keep it under reason like for instance no quad titan Xs. The max budget is 1k. Also keep in mind of the fact that this is going to be used for editing and not 4k Virtual Reality Creation or whatever.

What programs does you dad use? Because some video editing programs like Sony Vegas use CUDA/OpenGL/GPU acceleration.

he will be using adobe premiere

1k for the build or 1k for the gpu?

because 1k USD is a lot for a gpu

yes

 

that

1k for the gpu but that is if it absolutely has to be. I would like to keep it under 500 maybe if possible. A 980ti might be possible.

IIRC, Adobe Premiere uses CUDA/GPU Acceleration. I'd probably go 980Ti.

[BlackUnicornGaming]

ok thanks  HKZeroFive

titan black comes with 6gb, no?

titan x comes with 12gb

 

but generally speaking, titan is for people that wants a bigger e-peen

[BlackUnicornGaming]

would that work better?

if you're professionally editing, the x99 platform is a great investment

if you're doing it as a hobby, dont bother unless you're rich
