Because ATI is better than nvidia.

look at her eyes man freaky!!!

@SirCrest Try powerdirector 9

[SirCrest]

So far all GPU accelerating apps provide shit quality.

When it comes to Ati Avivo converter , you should really consider an alternative for HD5xxx series as well , it`s a shame that there isn`t one optimized yet...thank you!

I need a good multiformat Converter that uses Stream... ATIs won't support the Inputs i have

...It took 20 min for me to convert a half-hour episode for my PSP using my processor...

With my GPU.... 3 minutes. Mind=blown

@WhizKid562 that and you need a amd cpu on top of that.. so basicly bend over it works like crap on both.. I find adobe cs4 runs like crap on my pc I run

Intel Q9550

8 gigs ddr2 1066mhz

Ati 4870 1 gig

intel 160gig ssd

and it runs like shit..

-.-... use older Ati stream packet. Im able for this and im using 3x 3870.

Nvidia CUDA will always be the best

[grabarz117]

Totally agree !!! After having spent numerous days on finding which system works best with rendering and video editing (which is hardware -wise costly as hell) I've decided to build an AMD/ATI patform due to Ati-stream. Contrary to much hyped up overpriced nvidia's CUDA Ati-stream's FREE and as opposed to CUDA it's ALREADY WORKING!!

When the hell can we use "ATI STREAM" FOR THE HD3800, Shouldn't this technology be available for all of the direct x 10 cards like nvidia did. I swear to god if they don't release "ATI Stream" for the HD3800 SERIES I'm going to move to Nvidia's side.
