Hey guys, my friend is building a PC and he wanted to check to see how his build looks. He is not interested in gaming -- he is really using this as a home workstation. He considered a workstation video card (like a quadro) but is leaning towards a consumer gpu from nvidia (to make use of CUDA), and right now is just using the GTS 250 until something better comes along. Let me know what you guys think.
