[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 63390, member: 9521"] Unless you're planning on playing graphic intensive video games, either card will work fine. The 3-D module in Photoshop extended doesn't require all that much graphics computing power. I'm using a Dell XPS 8500 equipped with an i7-3770 (3rd generation) along with a 32gb SSD attached to my 2T HD. The system is lightening fast and it makes dealing with large files a breeze. But the real performance comes with maxing out your memory. Windows Home Premium allows you to go up to 16 gig of memory while Windows Pro allows 64 and Windows Ultimate is something crazy like 128 gig (I think, might be less). I'm running 16 gig and have yet to pull over 70% with both Lightroom, PS-6, and a few other programs open at the same time. But if you feel you need more than 16 gig then be sure to order Windows Pro or Windows Ultimate. [/QUOTE]
