That card is definitely on the short list. I guess more to the point is, will the GE Force series of graphics card do the job or is that part of the architecture totally different from the Quadro series?

Sorry for the late responce. I beta test for Matrox and wrote the article on the Parhelia. I am also on the RTX2 beta team. To best answer your question, its important to know if the editing software you are using is going to be graphic card dependant. If its dependant on realtime via the Graphics card, then you might have to go with an ATI 1900xtx or a top of the line Quadro series ($1800+) to give you the best results.
While the Parhelia is a great card, it lacks the processing power most new systems will need. Its off the list if you own an RTX2, AxioLE or Axio, and I have a feeling its not going to provide the power you need for edius, but you need to ask Canopus which card they reccomend for best performance.
