Okay clarification,
Does the video card strictly help the visualization of the program or does it actually help Revit run smother as a program? From what I have read it does not matter what video card you have for the rendering part but, (what is) affected by the video card.
The reason I ask is that we have a 150MB project with a ton of groups inside and sometimes when we modify a group my system goes into (Not Responding) forever it seems. We have a very crazy circular ramp 11 stories high with different floor to floor hieghts.
