I am building a computer for my cousin. He does gaming and CAD. Which is the best card for this? $700 limit on video card.
 
which does he do more of? What is more important out of those two? For $700 you can get the X1900XTX which seems to be the best for gaming now, but may not be for CAD.

Also what is the system this is going into???
 
If he's really into CAD, I'd think he'd want to get a card that supports extremely high resolutions... if that's the case, I'd suggest a FireGL or a Quadro.
 
With $700 budget for a single component, my guess is that he’s planning to spend a lot of money… in which case I would advise your cuisine to build a budget gaming PC and a second PC for CAD.
 
One computer. I was going to suggest to him an LCD that does 1280x1024. But maybe a CRT is better for him?

Click to expand...

for CAD hes going to need the highest res you can get so youll want to look at a 21" CRT that can do 1600x1200 or a 19" LCD
