Hi guys,
I'm looking for a graphics card (Under $600 ideally) that is compatible with my hackintosh and with Davinci Resolve 9 Lite, Adobe After Effects and Final Cut Pro X.
So far, looks like GeForce GTX 285 is compatible with what I need, but I don't know much about these things and I wanted to ask here. And if it is compatible, is there a specific version I should get? This will be for processing massive video files from my camera (100MB per second) into smaller files I can edit, so faster is better.

● Resolve 9 says it's best on NVIDIA CUDA GPUs but also works with AMD/ATI GPUs using OpenCL.

Adobe AE requires OpenGL 2.0–capable system and lists GeForce GTX 285 as compatible. (Link: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-effects.html)
FCPX requires OpenCL graphics card and lists GeForce GTX 285 as compatible. (Link: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4664)

My configuration:
Gigabyte GA-Z77-DS3H motherboard
Intel Core i5 3570K - 3.4 GHz Quad-Core 6 MB Cache
Corsair 16GB (2 x 8GB) Memory RAM DDR3 Vengeance 1600MHz ...
Envizage 777 T-BIRD ATX Case
Samsung 840 Series 120GB SSD

Thanks very much everyone!

I've been recommended the Gigabyte N65TOC-2GI GF GTX 650 Ti - 2 GB GDDR5 - PCI Express 3

Should be compatible, no?
