Hi All,

I am working toward getting a new PC system soon. I am looking at a Micro Center desktop with i7-2600, 8GB DDR3, 2 TB HDs , SSD boot drive, 2 Radeon crossfire 5750s and the usual misc. Any thoughts about what is the best hardware for Poser Pro 2012 / Vue Infinite? My system and software are, and will continue to be, all 64 bit.

My understanding is (could be wrong) that Poser does not offload chores to the GPU, so video card imay not be as important as it is in gaming where apps heavily rely on the GPU for processing. So maybe brute strength CPU power is best for Poser and DS4 Pro.

Is that true? If so, is there a better choice for graphics cards in the same price range? Any hardware advice greatly appreciated -- I cannot afford to make a mistake here.

Thank you.  ~ R
