Get GTX 560 @ 10k, and Corsair CX500 v2 .

Just my opinion. nVIDIA has stable drivers for 3D, CAD etc and it works better than AMD.

If you're going for AMD - Look no other than HD 6850 @ 9.5K . AMD 7xxx series doesn't have edge over HD 6850 at that price.

^^Unlike Games most 3d apps utilize cpu more than gpu.
Or in simple words you will be more benefited by investing in better quad core cpu like. i5 2500k rather than gpu .
However for games good Gpu is must.

I myself am a 3d designer...my amd phenom ii x4 handles apps like 3dsmax and maya very well without gpu although i have dedicated two way sli rig for gaming. For heavy scene rendering Gpu provides bit more horse power.

^its not must>>go try! I do it everyday

I don't know what you are doing but rendering isn't possible without a gpu.
Cpu doesn't render. I think you need to double check on what you really do.
Your post is misleading in the context of this thread.

Sujeet is right. You need a fast GPU for running Viewports to be precise (especially high-polygons). While working in the software, you need a fast multi-core CPU. For what we users call "rendering" - it is mostly run off CPU. If you have used 3ds Max/Maya, you know this very well. For GPU renders, you need special plugins.

Lol Atleast you should know that Todays processors are capable of powerful enough to make games like Crysis Run decently without GPU!!

Although its a bit kind of OT but I have seen recommendation of normal GPUs over professional GPUs (quadros & firepro) for 3d purposes. I always ask my bro a reason for this and he always says normal cards can't match these professional cards anyday. He is working in that industry since 5 years. Still no one recommends them. :?

Render is the final product you get - getting there is what is more CPU intensive. Viewport/models is what you are seeing now. That's through the GPU.

Guys stop arguing nd flooding this thread.. well does anybody care to answer my question
i dnt have a i7 processor nd i really need.a gpu for viewport render .. cause directx shader wont render in my pc. nd there r many software tht need a gpu to
work propely .. like mari or marmoste toolbag .. plz suggest a gud gpu nd psu

Strictly AMD Radeon. NO to nVidia "Fermi" GTX.

I have posted about this more than a thousand times regarding nVidia "Fermi" GTX drivers being crippled for 3ds max/Maya Viewports.

HD 6950 is 10 times faster than GTX 560 Ti in Viewports.

Answered your question above.

HD 6850 + Corsair GS600. nVidia "Fermi" GTX series will be 7-8 times slow in Viewports.

If only would have read it earlier..now my rendering rig runs on gtx560(non ti):cry:
I use maya for character designs and later import them to UDK fro 3d experimentation.
Before the April release(dont remember correctly) of UDK view ports didn't featured default animated clouds and land so my 965 worked well...later due to latest release of UDK i have to put in GPU to deal with real time rendering of clouds of in view ports(2+2)
