Are you going to run it alongside your 4870? If so, it'd be worth folding on it as well as using it for PhysX. :)

NICE! I used to 3d model back when I was majoring in game design but my work never got to your level. Is that a hobby of yours or your career?? If it's not your career, it should be!! get out there and get your skills out into our world.

It is a hobby/addiction.I do it for fun ,to stay out of bars/trouble(hehehe)I try to model a couple of things a week as of late.Slowly getting back into it.Oh it took longer to render than it did to make it.Modeled and textured in 2.5 hrs.THX for the encouragement, I may have to look into that, the way my current employment is looking(automotive parts supplier)

You still in game design?Work in the industry?

no I just majored in it for 2 and a half years at my college then switched to engineering which pretty much has me throwing out like 90% of those classes. Never worked in the industry
