If I recall this is my first request maybe second on needing advice on hardware. This one is baffling because if Apple's craziness and feuding they have with NVidia. I mean why do you walk away from a company that makes top notch GPU back to a company called ATI whose GPUs were burning out in you MacBook Pros? I know I have that particular MacBook Pro awaiting to order a logic board replacement. Too bad we can't upgrade the GPU itself to a different model.
Anyway, I seen the list on here of which NVidia GPUs work for Catalina and which ones don't. Is there a lists for ATI? I cany find it or I am missing it.
I am using what's in my profile same old 4770k, 16GBS 2400MHZ RAM, 10 HDD which 4 are SSDs. I use this machine mainly for 2 things, Pro Tools Subscription with many plugins like Ref Nexus 2, Spectrasonics Omnisphere 2vwith Keyscape, NI Battery with my AKai MPC Studio with its software and some other plugins.
I also use the Adobe Creative Suite but mainly photoshop and Premiere. I dont export a lot of videos maybe 1 once a month.
So I am looking for a video card that's not going to cost me $250-$1,000. There is no reason to have such a card just for Pro Tools because I don't use and plugins that utilizes the GPU even though I sure would wish Avid would start utilizing the GPU mixed with the CPU. With previous OSX versions I just purchased a GTX 750 TI and it did the job great for what I needed done.
Is there any graphics cards in the same price range as the 750TI currently? If I recall I paid $120 brand new...I know I can use my onboard graphics but this doesn't works well whenever you are using Pro Tools and Adobe Premiere. Lags somewhat when exporting. Never had this issue with the 750TI.
Why can't Apple just leave thing alone.
I appreciate the advice..
