Alright I'm finally going to build my own video editing workstation since my dad does not want me to touch his anymore. I got all the motherboard, cpu, hard drive, ram, set and all but it seems my video card is outdated. I saw on ebay a third-party radeon 9600 pro from gigabyte for $47 which is perfect for my budget. Any of you guys heard of this brand?

Gigabyte makes good motherboards, I have one in my new computer. The 9600 card should be a pretty good card. Try searching google for any reviews that might be around. The 9600 has been around a while so I would think there wouldn't be to many bugs left. Check Gigabyte web site, they may have more info and specs on the card for you.

I see alright thanks, though I ended up buying the Radeon 9700 Pro for about $5 bucks more on ebay (not a bad deal). Thanks for the tip.
