Looking for a mish-mash of Gaming Enthusiasts and Graphic Arts professionals to answer this question.
I've decided the next system is going to be geared towards 3D art and content creation, so the need for a decent workstation graphics card was necessary. That said, I think I've come to the conclusion that saving up and getting the $900 Wildcat VP990 would be the best idea, I know it has at least mid-range capabilities where FPU and rendering are concerned, however, I was wondering how it faired in the gaming market, as I'm known to play a game or three from time to time.
Granted that, I don't believe the VP990 is powered exclusively towards OpenGL as their previous Wildcat cards have been but I'm uncertain, I was curious how well this card would do in todays newer games and wondered how well they do
No, I'm not looking for top performance, but at least a 10 grand in 3DMark 2001SE would be nice, but not necessary, any takers to this question?
