Help choosing a GPU

[rscheetz]

I am needing to buy a graphics card but I don't understand all this stuff. If someone could direct me in the right direction as to what I should get, please help. This is what I have in the description below:

Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700 CPU @ 2.90GHz 2.90 GHz
Installed RAM 32.0 GB (31.9 GB usable)
Device ID E12864F3-B9ED-4C23-B72E-6E01F62240C4
Product ID 00325-81925-35711-AAOEM
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Pen and touch Pen support

And this is the program I downloaded and this is what I am needing to get:

VISION FX 2 MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS
Windows 10 or 11 (64-bit), a multicore Intel or AMD processor (2GHz or faster), 8GB RAM,
a dedicated graphics card with latest drivers,
and at least 15GB hard disk space; note that for optimal performance, higher RAM (like 32GB)
is recommended.

For clarity you could edit your post to only include information relevant to your system specs: processor, RAM size and speed, motherboard, PSU make/model/wattage.... Awareness if this computer is a prebuilt would also be very helpful.

Per the above Corel Vision FX requirements your processor's integrated graphics should be capable of opening and running the program. Until we know if your system is capable of supporting a discrete graphics card a suggestion on discrete graphics is impossible.

Wait for RTX 5060 Ti or 5070 in a couple weeks.

Wait for RTX 5060 Ti or 5070 in a couple weeks.

Why wait for a card we don't know anything about.

OP: If used is an option, get a 3080 or a 6800 XT.

I've added some more helpful circles.

We know the 5060 Ti is 16 GB and the 5070 is 12 GB, so that, along with CUDA already goes a lot further towards fulfilling the specification requirements than anything else recommended so far.

Especially post #2 - do not post nonsense

VISION FX 2 MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

It is clear what someone wants.

Yes it was not first google result - but whatever - scroll down.

Modern Nvidia Graphics Card (GeForce 10 series or newer) with minimum 12 GB VRAM, with CUDA compute 3.7 or greater support or Modern Intel® Integrated or Discrete Graphics Card (Iris® Xe or newer)

Note: You have to look for your area. If you live in austria for example. You need to take shops from austria, germany for example

Note: You may share to others. Which country are you from? How much money do you want to spend?

Note: As of now it is a very bad point to buy a graphic cards. In my point of view.
4000 series are leaving the market.
I think a decent graphic card, could be: nvidia 4070 / 4070 ti / 4080 / 4080 super / 4090
I'm not sure if that card will be fast enough for example, the software need cuda cores- this is a low end entry graphic card: Gainward GeForce RTX 4060 Ti Panther, 16GB

Note: I do not know how much do you want to spend. Bare minimum - cheap graphic card with only 12GB VRAM? or go for a better one? minimum is only 12GB RAM on the card.

Maybe a starting point:

You may change the pages at the bottom to get an initial idea which card may be suitable. Than check those prices for your region.
I have sorted it to the lowest price, i took nivdia only because of the cuda requirement. I also took cards from 2021 or later. I think no one should buy graphic cards older than 2021 year. (sorry post #5 no radeon 6800xt card)
Note: I'm well aware of, it is german language for austria.

A video card doing actual work is a foreign concept to some people, its ok

Da comrade, the current AMD GPU with <1% marketshare is actually the best option for work!

I'm sure software publishers will bother to optimuze for the <5% marketshare competitor instead of the universally used CUDA alternative!
