Quick question for the team. I'm running some large linear solid models in FEMAP/Nei Nastran. The models solve quickly, however setting up the model is a bit challenging. The complexity of the models seem to overwhelm my graphics card. I'm currently using an Nvidia 580Fx an entry level workstation card. I'm thinking of picking up an Fire Pro V5900 or a Quadro 2000 does anyone have an recommendations for a good work station that will work with models with 800,000 elements??

I think I have a Quadro 1500 or 1700 and I've had no issues with large models. I seldom work with more than 500.000 element but the largest have been larger than 1 million elements with no issues.
Are you using 32 or 64 bit Femap?
