What do you use your video card for?

[exe163]

Just wondering what other way fellow [H] use their expensive video card for.

Gaming, folding and benchmarking would be my best guess on the most popular 3 activities.

Video transcoding.

Oh yeah, basic display.

 

[atrance5]

Gaming, maxed with as much AA as possible

 

[dr.stevil]

games & 3D modeling

I need a GTX285 so I can run Aero.

I need a GTX285 so I can run Aero.

Dude, you need a 295 at least to run it at anything higher than 1024x768.

 

[ballistic]

mostly for 2D purposes lately

 

[obobski]

gaming, HD decoding/scaling, basic desktop

and my chosen setup is totally overkill for any of those items

 

[JaguarSKX]

I use it to watch pron. Oh wait, I use my monitors to watch pron.

I'm so confused!!! What does a video card do?

Folding! Some idiot took all the fun out of gaming for me, because of folding
