Following is my system configuration:Windows 8 Professional 64-bitAMD Bulldozer FX4100 3.6GHz16GB Transcend DDR3 (8+ @ 1333 MHzMotherboard - Asus M5A78L-MLX V2 (can't support two graphics cards right?)1TB Seagate SATA HDD (if that makes any difference)Current graphics card - Radeon HD 5450I'd like to upgrade my graphics card as it just doesn't seem to do it anymore. It takes a long time to open a 75 MB Revit model on Autodesk Showcase 2015 and lags a lot while panning/orbiting large models when it does open. I'm going to soon start using Rhino and 3dsMax, and don't want the same thing happening or it taking too long to render.My budget does not increase beyond the K600, so I cannot buy the K2000. After reading so many reviews, all mixed opinions and case-specific replies, I'm more confused than before. My question is: should I buy the K600 or a similar/equivalent Geforce/Radeon/FirePro (in price also) card. If any of the latter, which card would you recommend?
This is a video of how my Showcase moves right now:

PS: Also, if there's some big sale or something happening in the US, where expensive cards are being sold cheap, do let me know.

Okay, I just discovered the FirePro v4800. And this video -

Granted, it's a v4900 in the video, but the performance of v4800 should definitely be great for its price!

Except you won't be able to utilize iRay in 3dsMax like you would on a K600. I have a K600 at home and it works quite well. I've also had tremendouse luck with the GTX 760 - 2Gb, but that is a power hungry monster compared to the K600.
