I know, I know, this has been done to death but it seems that a lot of posts that claim their OOB success with FCPX and GPU's just state the card type and not the Brand/re-brand manufacturer.
I am assuming (correct me if I am wrong) that there will be some R9280x cards that might not be as compatible as others due to drivers?
I have found new cards on eBay and the like ranging from about $130 and up. You get what you pay for to an extent but there must be a sweet spot.
I would think that the AMD cards would be the best. After all, it is their own design, but what other cards at, let's say, a nicer price point, are OOB fully compatible.
I am running Yosemite and would like to use either 1 or 2 cards in my hack. I don't game, this Hack is primarily for FCPX.
Also, please specify the "X" version (R280x?) if you would be so kind.
Thanks in advance
