Yeah, I assume that it is, because I am getting a "desktop replacement", yes a glorified huge laptop. :-) 17" widescreen baby! This is coming from someone who has a stinking 14 inch with only 1080x800 screen resolution...it's TOUGH to do maya with just a small window.

I *might* be able to change the video card later in the future, but I'm hoping that my speed and RAM will help a bit.

I don't play WoW anyways, so having a graphic card made for games doesn't matter to me at all. I'm a casual PC gamer.
