What hardware for Protools 10?

[noimarver]

Hi everybody,

I am trying to set me a laptop and I will also buy a protools 10 so that will work with windows 7.
It will be to make the composition, recording and mixing.

As for the graphics card, I have no idea which brand to take.
I heard about CUDA technology but I do not know what it is.
I have found on NVIDIA cards.


questions:

* Is a AMD can work with protools windows 7?
Here the model proposed by the manufacturer on the online configurator:
The macbook pro I know they have a card installed in AMD, but is it can run on windows 7?


* Concerning the firewire chipset, I am also thinking to buy a sound card, perhaps the mbox pro 3, on the laptop they indicate that:

"OHCI Host Controller 1394
Manufacturer: O2Micro Incorporated "

Is this chipset is compatible?
Or should I buy an express card?


Thank you in advance for your help.
