Hi guys
Being in the process of buy a desktop, has the chance to get this card for €250, I have not any knowledge about hardware, so I need some tips about this card.
I was looking the passmark and it is 1950,I don't see it as too high, anyway ca it does the trick?

Pc I'm going to buy is an i7 3850 mghz, 16 ram, 1 tb hd, and so on, I think it does the trick with GG, but the card... no sure, what do you think about?
Have to wait till next week, since this is a pc, well don't know how it say, but you say what you want, and them make the pc for you.
Thanks in advance for the tips.

I didn't know anything about that card either so I did a little research. €250 = $264.80 (today) I looked up more up to date cards. You can get a GTX 1060 for around $230 (€217.15 , passmark 8935). I'm pretty sure you would be happier long term with something along those lines!

Geforce cards are more suited for gaming, Quadro cards are more suited for CAD. As Jerry Tremble says, go for a GTX1060 (or a Radeon RX480).
