[QUOTE="leecho7, post: 326494, member: 19293"] You don't really need an ATI 1900xt. If you don't plan on using heavy graphics intensive programs, than the 7300GT should suit you just fine. And if you want to, you could always upgrade the graphics card later when time and money permits. The thing with the iMac, is that you are very limited when it comes to upgrading. It's a great machine, I'm using it now, but I'm starting to see the limitations of the machine when it comes to video editing (which I do quite frequently). I personally thought I wouldn't be doing a lot of video editing to justify a professional desktop like the macpro. However circumstances changed and now i find myself needing a more powerful machine. Go with the Macpro, with the 7300GT if you can't afford the 1900xt. You can always upgrade the card later, it's easy to do. [/QUOTE]
