[Jason425]

nothing like $653 video card....

i think it woudl be a big wast of money tho bc you really dont need ne thing for that beside modeling and stuff like that. well no gaming use

[Jason425]

that's my point.. I can't even justify $400 for a vid card.. that's the "why the hell am I spending this much on a video card" threshold
