When the hell would you use this?

The only thing I can think of is some sort of program that needs A LOT of graphics power, e.g. professional HD video rendering/keyframing, etc but if that's what you needed... you would get a Quadro FX or something to that standard not a consumer standard product? It just seems like a "mine's bigger than yours" product to me.

That Graphics Card can't run oblivion in full setting with a 2560 x 1600 resolution, even with tweaking. More games are coming out that will start pushing this. In the PC world there is always some new game that brings graphics cards to their knees. I never suggest getting the very top of the range, but I do like to get fairly high end ones myself and then over clock them a little.

 ;D Is there a graphics card that can??
