Hi all
I'm editing 4K video (with proxy files) with Magix Vegas Platinum 16. I have no dedicated GPU, just the one integrated into my Intel i7-7700. I can only preview video in Draft mode, sometimes in Preview, but never very well in Good or Best the way I used to be able to with HD content. That, and render times are absolutely abysmal when exporting to 4K.
Here are my PC specs, taken by Speccy:

I'm considering buying this GPU:

But the store is saying it's final purchase, no returns if the box is opened, due to COVID.
Can I count on getting a significant boost in performance with this GPU?
Thanks!
