Well, i need loads of performance since im a digital 3d designer. Mostly i use: Zbrush, Wavefront Maya/3Ds Max, VRay, Maxwell, Photoshop, After effects, Premiere etc.... sometimes i need to use some of this programs at the same time and with 2 gb wasnt enough, so i just bought 6gb more to "try"

I know the graphics cards arent as powerfull as for example the 8800 could be, but my flatmate who have it in his Dual Xeon is having loads of problems with the drivers, so i just went for something balanced prize with quality.

I could have had aswell dual nvidia quadro, but it seems it has more or less same performance as one of mine , and you cant easly play games as i really like to do.
Same happens with the processor, never tryed an AMD so i just went with the first one i saw.

Hellfire:
Thanks man ill have a look to those.
And what contest?

The difference programs open way faster, my work flow is like a stream and not a pond as it used to be ( long hours of waiting the renders to be done- usually they took 8 hours, now same scene, same size, in about 4hours and a half, it is still a lot but hey,i don't need to leave it rendering at night while i sleep so i don't interfear with the rendering process)

Other difference, now im able to play high res in all games( not that i have much time to play but its really nice to know it) In my other computers i could barelly play half life 2, and much more sad quake 3 with the r_picmip 10 (or no textures at all cos the processor that came with the pc was a piece of shi* , was like having a tank with a motor of a stiletto)
