Like usual, the backstory: I have a HD5770 on my gaming rig, and its proven to be a very capable card. I can run most games on max, the latest games on high, and has generally proven to be just a great all-around card, or so I thought.My wife is currently going to school for architecture/interior design; up until recently, most of her work had been by hand, but now she's beginning to get into heavy AutoCAD and Google Sketchup usage. I figured my card should be able to handle most of it (since she is still doing entry-level work), but things went downhill quickly when she began working on a large hotel-lobby in Sketchup, as well as a performing arts school. Her computer would take 10 minutes just to swing around the view (she was running onboard, her graphics card had fried); moving to my rig was a major step up, but then errors began to occur. Shadows would come and go for no reason, it would freeze and crash intermittently, etc. I tried working through Sketchup help and most said my card should be fine for usage, but there were just too many errors.Well, we purchased the FirePro V4800, and things improved dramatically. Despite her only having a dual-core processor in her system compared to my quad, her computer could now run Sketchup/AutoCAD smooth and essentially flawless, far better than my system; if you do really really heavy 3D, you'll need the next step up, but for most who aren't rendering 10-story buildings, this card should probably be plenty.Now, this doesn't improve rendering times (which is why we're looking to upgrade her CPU soon), since rendering is typically CPU-based (in Sketchup, she used the Podium plugin), but for overall workings within the program, it was a huge leap forward. So, save your sanity and buy a workstation card like this, not a mid-high end gaming card.However, this is one flaw, and its a biggie. Due to the general political nature of business, Nvidia has garnered deals with many program developers, and certain programs (*ahem* Adobe Premiere CS5!!) will see no benefit to an ATI card, and only work with Nvidia for graphic acceleration. We went with the FirePro because hardware-wise, its far more capable then the current Nvidia offerings price-wise, plus I didn't care for the many calls of poor manufacturing by PNY for the Nvidia workstation cards, but it is a trade-off. If AMD were a little better at playing the field, they'd be winning the GPU market hands-down. I will say, they've gotten a lot better about their OpenGL support, and their software updates have become regular (almost too frequent), but I think it shows they are working to improve their weakpoint (their drivers/software).So, I don't regret buying the card, and it is very capable for my wife's usage, but I would have been ecstatic had it worked for my usage (video editing with Premiere). *Edit: I just looked into it, and Adobe has only certified a few very expensive models of the Quadros to work with Premiere, which is way outta this card's price range anyways; you can technically hack the cheaper Nvidia cards to use the Mercury Engine, but still, kinda lame.Quality-wise, its very well made. The fan is solid and quiet, its not a bulky card but is very capable, and it has DVI/Displayport outs (displayport for workstation monitors, higher resolutions, and multi-monitor support).*And just an aside for those confused about this card, this is a workstation card. The primary difference between a workstation graphics card and a consumer/gaming graphics card is the handling of DirectX and OpenGL, as well as certification for certain programs (which costs time and money). DirectX is typically used for gaming, and is what consumer/gaming cards focus on primarily. OpenGL is typically used for 3D modeling programs (such as Maya, AutoCAD, and Sketchup), and workstation cards are geared towards OpenGL performance/stability with a more complete library and being certified to work with those programs through testing. You can get a better/cheaper card if you're looking to game or not into 3d modeling by buying a consumer/gaming card.

This workstation card means business! I was blown away by the improved performance when dealing with any sort of 3D graphics, from CAD to Google Earth. No lag, no processing time to render 3D views on the fly with textures and shadows, this thing just flies right through it all. I upgraded from a Radeon HD3600 512mb, and there is no comparison how much more this card can handle and how much faster it is.(Windows Aero Graphics Score improved from 4.8 to 7.0)Conclusion:If you do any sort of 3D modeling production work or similar I highly recommend this card for a huge performance upgrade with little cost.System specs;AMD Phenom II X4 2.8ghzAsus M4A78...6GB DDR3ATI FireGL V4800dual DVI monitors

I was expecting a high WIN7 Experience and got a 6.9 out of 7.9 rating. Not bad, but was hoping to go over 7.0. Not sure if going over would make much difference in what I would see, and can't complain. Video is smooth, with tracking across the screen, no hesitations, colors are vibrant. Dell 1907fp Ultrasharp set to 75 hertz 1280x1024.Installation was simple, click in and plug in and all is well.
