Hello,

I'm just wondering if a "good" and seperate video card, generally speaking,
is only good for games or does it help the whole comp system run better ?
Reason I'm asking is that recently I had an AMD system put together which
includes the Nvidia 128mb card. It was one of Nvidia's better rated "budget"
cards and I got it real cheap so I thought "why not ?". I don't really play
games all the time, perhaps sometimes, and now wonder if I wasted my money ?

Thanks,

Daniel
