Probably don't need such a monster GFX card, I doubt I'll be doing a ton of gaming (it's been over a year since a single minute of game has been played).
I guess this is more aimed towards CAD and photoshop. Which, I may forgo a little GFX grunt and replace with more RAM.
The GFX card is the only real variable, at this point.
Planning on making the current bits into a media server/huge DVR.
