Depends what you can afford - we use FX1100 and FX3000 (Nvidia) for 3D motion graphics and film editing (Maya 8.0, Final Cut Studio 5.1 as well as After Effects Pro)

They do the job pretty well - although the FX3000 cost us about £800 a piece!!!

When did you buy them and would you switch to a different card if you had the choice? If so, what?

The motherboard is yet to be purchased, but I want to run 2 dual opterons on it, which reduces the number of boards significantly. I doubt I will use SLI.

Bastard.

I've spent the last 2 hours looking at hardware instead of working. The new Gigabyte 965 Motherboard range (i.e. the core™ 2™ duo™ processor™ supporting one) hasn't got an SLI model yet. Probably have to wait until nVidia sell a million nFORCE500 boards before they hand over the rights.
