Good y/n?
couldn't recommend it from a personal level but yeah it looks nice

And my dad has decided he wants a new computer, he wants me to build it for him. He wants a really good GPU when he doesn't even play games or anything like that. I've tried explaining it to him but it's hopeless.

Is he going to be using 3D rendering or modeling programs of any type with it?
