choppy playback

Hey all, I just installed FCE on my G5 and the video playback is choppy. Not sure if it's a setup issue or if I need a newer video card. The card in this thing is a GeForce 5200. Any suggestions?

Dual 2 gig G5, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

Specific details on your system are what is needed.

What versions of FCE, QT and OS X do you have?
Exactly what model G5? How much RAM? +What capacity are the disk drive(s)+, how are they formatted, +and how much free space+ is on each ... especially your system HD?

What kind of video are you working with/what was the source? DV? HDV? Something else? If you captured the video from a camcorder, what make/model?

What Easy Setup are you using in FCE?
