<P>What is the best and most cost-effective way to get faster and tighter when I have a 867 QSilver w/ 1.5m ram and standard Nvida w/ 32m ram.</P>
<P>My main applications are PhotoShop CS and I want to do some video editing (FCP).</P>
<P>Out of the CPU upgrades below, are there any compare and contrast reviews, or if users have them can you express the performance increase:</P>
<P>Sonnet Encore/ST DUAL 1.3ghz, PowerLogix PowerForce DUAL 7457 1.33ghz and the GigaDesigns DUAL 1.33</P>
<P>How does one calculate an average combined performance of dual processing speed?</P>
<P>How much better off would PhotoShop/FCP perform with a vid-card upgrade (I figured alot of PS calculations were the CPU/RAM and not so much the Video Card); and what are some sober cards and MB of RAM I should look to?</P>
<P>much thx</P></FONT></FONT></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></DIV><p>
