Workstation video card
hey everybody

We are looking at possibly building a computer for our animation/cad since our school computers can't handle it. I hope i got this thread in the right place, also, sorry if i didnt. Anyway, does anybody have any recommendations on what video card to use? I was thinking possibly an Nvidia QuadroFX 700 or an ATI FireGL, paired with an Intel Pentium4 3.0GHZ and 1 to 2 GB of RAM. Any suggestions? there will of course be the things like hard drives/CD drives etc. etc.

Let me know of any suggestions, and don't worry about explaining the technical stuff, like that i need a socket 478 processor or whatever, as i do have some knowledge about computers.

thx
pat
