Either for gaming or the programs you want to use, you're not going to make it with either of those cards because they are too weak.
You should be looking at an ATI 6970 or NVidia GTX560ti core 448, at least.
In fact, for the use of your editing stuff, you'd be better off with a Quadro card, but they're bloody expensive ($2000 to $7000) and not fit for gaming...
The rest of your system is okay, except you'd want to go for at least 8GB of RAM for the rendering/editing stuff...

Animated (3d) PC Chess Game?
rob1963man
I used to have a Chess game for my pc where the pieces were people, and when you moved a piece they would "walk" to their destination and fight each other.
I'm looking for something like this online and I can't find anything like it. I don't remember the name of the game or its manufacturer.
Any clues as to what it was or something similar to it? It was not an internet game, it was a Player Vs. Computer only.
Thanks!

It was called Battlechess! I loved it. I don't know about any online chess games like it.
However, Chessmaster 10th Edition ($20 at Best Buy) has a couple of animated sets which are much better than the old Battlechess program! They are selectable, so you're not stuck with them if you don't like them. Not only are they animated like the one you mentioned, but there's a 3D mode where you can actually put on a pair of those Red/Blue 3D glasses and play in a true 3D environment. I thought it would be kinda stupid but I actually was impressed! (The weird thing is that the game doesn't come with the glasses. I just read that the game had the 3D feature and I used a pair of glasses I had lying around from a 3D Shrek video I had. If you don't have the glasses you can Google search them online and purchase a pair.)
There is one other like Battlechess. It just came out for the Sony PSP. It's called Online Chess Kingdoms. It is very nice with the moving characters and has a really nice viewing function where you can swing the board around to see it from all angles with the joystick. (Very fluid.) Don't be misled by the word "Online" in the title - you can play the computer offline as well. It plays a pretty good game.
I recommend both programs equally.
If you have an old Nintendo 64, they made a Battlechess-like game for that called "Virtual Chess" with the moving characters you like. (They are more goofy and cartoony though.) It also has a very impressive tutorial for beginners as well as experienced players.
Good luck! I hope this helped.
